Hurricane Cocktail

Hurricane Cocktail

Originally created at Pat O’Brien’s in New Orleans during World War II, the Hurricane was created because rum was plentiful at the time. This boozy drink uses light and dark rum, plus fresh-squeezed fruit juices and passionfruit for that slightly tart, yet sweet taste. This Hurricane cocktail was meant for celebrating with friends, whether you're at a Mardi Gras parade or just enjoying a dinner party at home.
