Makes 1 cocktail, easily multiplied

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces light rum
  • 2 ounces dark rum
  • 2 ounces passion fruit juice
  • 1 ounce orange juice
  • 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
  • 1 ounce simple syrup
  • 1/2 ounce grenadine
  • Ice
  • 1 orange slice and 1 maraschino cherry for garnish

Instructions

  • Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
  • Add the light rum, dark rum, passion fruit juice, orange juice, lime juice and simple syrup.
  • Shake hard for 15 seconds, until the shaker feels ice-cold to the touch.
  • Fill a hurricane glass with fresh ice.
  • Strain the shaken cocktail into the glass.
  • Slowly pour the grenadine over the back of a spoon so it sinks and pools at the bottom.
  • Garnish with the orange slice and cherry, and serve with a straw.

Good to Know

Batch the rum and juices without the grenadine; pour over ice and float the grenadine into each glass right before handing it over.
