I am a HUGE fan of New Orleans! I love the city, the people, the music and especially the food and specialty cocktails! One of my favorite New Orleans cocktails is the Hurricane! Here is a recipe that I use. I multiply this by 4 to make by the pitcher for parties.
1 oz of vodka
1 oz of gin
1 oz of dark rum
½ oz of light rum
1 oz of almond liqueur
1 oz of triple sec
Top with pineapple & orange juice (I have even tried some of the combo fruit juices that come by the carton in the refridgerator section at the market)
Combine over ice and shake well. If you are making larger batches, I suggest giving it a quick mix in the blender! Garnish with an orange slice, cherry and a chunk of pineapple. YUM!
