Hurricane Soul Recipe

Cocktail

1. 1

   Prepare shaker

   Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. This chills the shaker so ingredients mix and dilute properly.

2. 2

   Add spirits and juices

   Pour into the shaker: 2 oz dark rum, 1 oz light rum, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.25 oz fresh lemon juice, 1 oz passion fruit syrup (or puree + simple), and 1 oz fresh orange juice.

3. 3

   Sweeten and finish

   Add 0.5 oz grenadine, 0.25 oz simple syrup (if you prefer a sweeter drink), and 2 dashes Angostura bitters to the shaker.

4. 4

   Shake

   Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold and slightly frosted. The shaking chills, aerates, and properly integrates the dense passion fruit syrup and juices.

5. 5

   Prepare glass

   Fill a tall Hurricane glass (or large Collins) about three-quarters full with crushed ice.

6. 6

   Strain and layer

   Double-strain the cocktail into the prepared glass over the crushed ice to remove any pulp. Pour slowly so the drink sits nicely over the crushed ice.

7. 7

   Add finishing touch

   If you want a layered look reminiscent of a hurricane, drizzle the 0.5 oz grenadine gently down the side of the glass after pouring so it sinks slightly toward the bottom for a sunrise effect (if you already included grenadine in the shaker, skip extra drizzle).

8. 8

   Garnish

   Garnish with an orange wheel and a maraschino cherry on a pick. Slap a mint sprig between hands and tuck it beside the fruit for aroma if desired.

9. 9

   Serve

   Serve with a straw. Encourage the guest to stir slightly before drinking to combine flavors if grenadine was layered.
