Hurricane Cocktail
The Hurricane Cocktail is a vibrant mixed drink featuring a combination of dark and white rum with citrus and passion fruit juices, sweetened with grenadine and simple syrup. Shaken with ice and served over ice, it delivers a sweet, tropical flavor with a bright, fruity balance enhanced by garnishes of orange and maraschino cherry.
Ingredients
- 2 ounces dark rum (1/4 cup)
- 2 ounces white rum (1/4 cup)
- 1 ounce lime juice (2 tablespoons, see note 1)
- 1 ounce orange juice (2 tablespoons)
- 1 ounce passion fruit juice (2 tablespoons, see note 2)
- 1/2 ounce grenadine (1 tablespoon)
- 1/2 ounce simple syrup (1 tablespoon, see note 3)
- orange or wheel, for garnish, slice
- maraschino cherry for garnish
Instructions
- To a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add dark rum, white rum, lime juice, orange juice, passion fruit juice, grenadine, and simple syrup.
- Shake vigorously until chilled, about 30 seconds. Strain into a tall glass filled with ice and garnish with an orange wheel and a maraschino cherry.
Notes
- Lime juice can be substituted with lemon juice if preferred.
- Passion fruit purée or syrup may replace passion fruit juice in equal amounts.
- Simple syrup is made by heating equal parts sugar and water until dissolved, then cooled; leftover syrup stores refrigerated for 3-4 weeks.
- This recipe yields one 8-ounce cocktail; for larger servings, scale ingredients accordingly.
- Use a Hurricane glass or any tall glass; even casual options like plastic cups work.
- To make a large batch, multiply ingredient quantities and chill in a pitcher before serving with ice and fruit garnishes.
