Hurricane Cocktail
This hurricane cocktail is refreshing with less sugar and calories than the original. The fruit-forward flavor is amplified by passion fruit-flavored sparkling water, which adds effervescence and a sweet floral finish. Serve this drink for Mardi Gras or anytime you want a fruity cocktail.
Ingredients:
- ½ cup fresh orange juice
- 2 ounces light rum
- 2 ounces dark rum
- ¼ cup passion fruit nectar
- 2 tablespoons grenadine or maraschino cherry juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- Ice
- ½ cup passion fruit-flavored sparkling water (such as LaCroix)
- Maraschino cherries with stems and orange slices for garnish
Instructions:
Combine orange juice, light rum, dark rum, passion fruit nectar, grenadine (or cherry juice) and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Add ice. Cover and shake vigorously until chilled, about 30 seconds. Strain the mixture evenly into 2 ice-filled hurricane glasses. Top each with ¼ cup sparkling water. Garnish with a cherry and an orange slice, if desired.
