“The syrupy, hangover-in-a-glass known as the Hurricane did have humble beginnings as a real cocktail. This is my nod to the precursor.”- Chef Kelly English

  1. To make nectar, mix all ingredients together and reserve.
  2. To make batch of cocktails, mix all ingredients besides Bacardi 151 in punch bowl. Serve over ice in 10 tall glasses and float ½ ounce 151 over each cocktail. Garnish with orange wedge and cherry.
