Drinkable and refreshing, but not particularly good.
Pineapple splash variant
Add a splash of pineapple rum on top (don’t stir, let it float).
Suddenly this is a good drink. The pineapple flavour and sweetness of the rum is what this was missing.
Probably try just replacing the gin with pineapple rum in the first place. Then this is close to being a Bitter Pineapple Mai Tai. (Throw in some triple sec while we’re at it?)
