Got this @ TGIFriday's in Austin Texas. Told the waitress to bring me something different & what a delight this surprise was!

Had one at TGIF after a stressful time at airport, loved it want another! Refreshing, tasty, balanced, delicious.

Not too bad...

A little too sweet. I add about 25% diet sprite. Thins it out a little, and cuts the "I just got a cavity" feeling you get with each sip.

Jitterbug through June

This has got to be my favorite drink of all time. If mixed properly (and this recipe is), the June Bug is a light mixture of every taste you'd associate with summer in the tropics-- bananas, pineapple, coconuts, and alcohol-- with the appealing green and honeydew flavor of Midori. It's not as overpowering as a pina colada, and more refreshing than most rum mixtures.

Had this at TGIF last week... I've never looked up a drink before. I just bought 4 bottles of the kinds of alcohol I thought were in it, as I didn't look at the menu while I was there...I was kind of wrong. I'm going back to the store to get it right. Thanks!

Best ever

This is my all-time favorite. There is nothing better.

TGIF version

Always been one of my faves. The actual TGIF recipe is 1oz Midori/.5oz Malibu/.5oz Banana/2oz SnS/2oz Pine - and I think they got it right. Otherwise, the banana takes over.

I'm from Argentina, and I went to TGI Fridays where i had this drink, it was awesome! I really love it! The only problem is that here is hard to find the pineapple juice...
