Maison Premiere: Hurricane - Signature Cocktail Drink Recipe


Ingredients:
1 oz. Appleton VX
1 oz. Rhum JM (80 proof)
1 oz lemon juice
1 oz. Passion fruit syrup

Procedure:
shake briefly w strain into Hurricane glass with crushed ice

Description:
Complex import laws in the wake of Prohibition forced bars to purchase large stocks of rum whenever acquiring scotch (a far more prized commodity). Pat O'Brien, a New Orleans legend, came up with the Hurricane as a means to slough off all his excess rum on carousing, booze-addled sailors. He served the long drinks in empty hurricane lamps. These days on Bourbon Street, they tend to appear in plastic cups.
