Method

Prepare Glass

1

Chill and fill

Choose a tall hurricane or highball glass. Fill the glass with ice cubes or crushed ice to chill while you assemble the drink.

Mix Cocktail

2

Combine spirits and mixers

In a cocktail shaker (or mixing glass) filled halfway with ice, pour 2 oz Southern Comfort, 3 oz orange juice, and 1 oz sour mix. Cap and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted.

3

Strain and top

Discard the ice from the chilled serving glass and fill it fresh about three-quarters full with ice. Strain the shaken mixture into the glass. Top with 2 oz lemon-lime soda, pouring gently to preserve some effervescence.

4

Add grenadine

Slowly pour 1/2 teaspoon grenadine down the inside edge of the glass (or over the back of a spoon) so it sinks and creates the classic hurricane gradient (red at the bottom with orange above).

5

Finish

Garnish with an orange wheel and a maraschino cherry on a pick. Squeeze a fresh lime wedge over the top if desired and drop it in. Serve with a straw.
