The "Brown Derby" Hollywood version was a bit different but this drink was made popular there.

2 oz gin
1/2 oz pineapple juice
1/2 oz fresh orange juice
1/4 oz lemon juice
1/4 oz simple syrup
1 dash Angostura® bitters

This dates back to the 1930s and was originally a Gin based drink, so it looks like the other is a "Island
Style" version with Rum and would make sense that Grapefruit juice was used also.

Of the 15 recipes I looked up all of them used Gin.
