Step 1: You will need…

  • 40 ml gold rum
  • 40 ml light rum
  • 25 ml gin
  • 10 ml amaretto
  • 150 ml orange juice, or the juice of 2 oranges
  • 1 dash of grenadine
  • 1 shot measure
  • 1 knife
  • 1 chopping board
  • 1 squeezer
  • 1 shaker
  • 1 strainer
  • 1 glass
  • 1 short straw

Step 2: Prepare the cocktail

Half fill the shaker with ice.

If you don't want to use a measure why don't you just free-pour the alcohol right from the bottle?

First, pour out a large splash or 40 millilitres of Gold Rum over the ice. Next, add a large splash, 40 millilitres of Light rum, a splash or 25 millilitres of gin, and about 10 ml of amaretto. Now pour on 150 millilitres of orange juice, add a dash of grenadine.

Step 3: Shake the cocktail, strain, and garnish, and serve

Place the strainer on the shaker and add 3 large ice cubes to a highball glass and strain the drink over the ice. Take a slice of orange, and cut a groove into the flesh of the fruit. Place this on the side of the glass and add a straw. Enjoy!

    that's not a hurricane

    The problem with this and numerous other cocktail recipes on this site is that they're not accurate. A Hurricane always includes passion fruit syrup or juice. And Gin? What's that doing in there? The convention for naming cocktails holds that if you change the ingredients, you need to come up with a new name for the drink. This could be called a UK Hurricane or something like that, but it is not a Hurricane. I like the site, but you need to go to someone who actually knows how the drinks are supposed to be made, not how a particular bartender interprets them.
