Hurricane Sandy


Trick or Treat!  Or if you are on the Circle... TRICK OR DRINK!
I had originally intended to make something else, but after we had Hurricane Sandy sweep through the Northeast earlier this week, and one of my friends from high school posted on Facebook a "Hurricane" drink, I decided to make a "Hurricane Sandy" for my trick or drink offering.  So thank you Elaine for posting the recipe, and thank you to the Circle for another great Halloween!

  • 1 oz. vodka
  • ¼ oz. grenadine syrup
  • 1 oz. gin
  • 1 oz. light rum
  • ½ oz. 151 rum
  • 1 oz. amaretto almond liqueur
  • 1 oz. triple sec
  • 2 oz. grapefruit juice
  • 2 oz. pineapple juice
  • Diet Sprite (optional)
DIRECTIONS
  1. Pour all but the juices, in order listed, into a hurricane glass, three-quarters filled with ice.
  2. Fill with equal parts of grapefruit and pineapple juices, approximately 2 oz. each.
  3. If drink is too strong, add Diet Sprite (or Sprite, or Fresca).
