Rock The Hurricane

What’s special about this featured drink? The Hurricane was born just after The Tiki Bar opened in 1989. Several friends gathered at the bar to brainstorm about tropical drinks to suit the name of the restaurant. The Hurricane fits. And the right color, sweetness and strength make it special, all while hiding the taste of alcohol.

For what occasion would you recommend this cocktail? The Hurricane assists in an imaginary trip to a warm island, the celebration of time off. It is pure tropical cheer. So any time you’re craving a tropical getaway.

The Hurricane

Ingredients:

  • 2 ounces white rum
  • 1 ounce dark rum
  • 4 ounces (a little more or less) pineapple juice
  • dash grenadine
  • 151 rum floater

Instructions: Pour the light and dark rums first. Add juice to almost fill a 16-ounce glass full of ice. Add grenadine, shake or pour into larger glass, and then pour back into original. Add your 151 rum floater, and garnish as you please!

Have a drink With Jim Finegan  

The Tiki Bar owner Jim Finegan was thrown behind the bar at his father's restaurant at a very young age in 1977. For the shy, introverted kid, it was a shocking but life-changing event. Says Jim, “I have worked behind a bar and watched every succeeding generation and their tastes in cocktails around this country and others. Over all of those years, the prevalent trend has been to hide the taste of alcohol.”

Any special bartending tips? This is an easy drink; Jim recommends pouring the grenadine after the pineapple so it doesn't collect on the bottom of the cup too quickly. This makes mixing the drink by shaking that much quicker.
