I wanted to chime in. I lived in the French Quarter recently for 12 years. I managed a Bourbon Street bar. I knew the GM of Pat O'Briens one block away. He showed me boxes of newspaper articles from the 1940s. I learned a lot, including Pat's original 1942 recipe. The juices in the original Hurricane are orange and lime. Yes, on the light and dark rum (2 oz each). They used a 24 oz Hurricane glass. Same as today. Yes, on the red passionfruit syrup. The drink is most def red. Newspaper articles discuss the red vomit around the streets near Pat O'Briens in the 1940s. Thought I'd share.
Very appropriate as Laura and Marcos just barreled through the Gulf of Mexico here in the Panhandle Florida. Spent many a good time at Pat O’Brians having hurricanes in New Orleans French Quarter while in college. Lots of fun. Thank you for the memories.
A customer walks into a New Orleans bar. The bartender asks “What’ll you have?” The customer answers “A Corona and two hurricanes.” The bartender says “That’ll be $20.20.”
Now I know! Thanks for sharing this absolutely refreshing drink. Just ordered it at my bar and it was fantastic! Today I will try it at home with your recipe. Keep up with your premium content.
In Cuba they serve Piña Coladas made with Havana Club 3 años inside of the very pineapples they use to make the drink! I found it a really lovely touch (and thrifty as you said yourself)
Has many at Pat O'Brien's in New Orleans. You are right about possibly being lethal. On a hot afternoon a sweet tropical drink can go down w a y too fast. Then you will walk like you are in HURRICANE. Still a must have if you visit New Orleans,
Hurricanes from Pat O’Brien’s in the French Quarter are certainly boozy. It rendered my incoherent in quick fashion. Please do a video on the Sazerac cocktail. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this spec with us. The hurricane is one of the first cocktails I ever tried. I was at Pat O'Brien's in New Orleans and had just reached drinking age. I'd certainly be interested to see the piña colada in a future video.
Hey, this was enlightening. The recipe you described as the gone astray nightmare version, was more or less the very recipe I found on the internet ... claiming to be the original one! Be sure how much I enjoyed this video. As a coincidence I bought passionfruit syrup some weeks ago. I know now what my next drink will be. Keep up, even if an odd bible quote or two may get in your way.
Nice job on the Hurricane. Like most drinkers, I was turned off from Tiki style cocktails due to being served excessively sweet versions made with cheap alcohol -- the extra sugar mostly coming from cheap artificially flavor grenadine of course covering up the fact that the alcohol is cheap even though you paid premium alcohol price. The moment you said to think of this as a Rum Sour the lightbulb went off in my head.
A lot of the best tiki and tiki adjacent drinks were originally rum sours with a split base of rum and then the simple syrup and lemon are subbed out for more "exotic" sweeteners and citrus.
'It is pretty boozy' and 'it's pretty lethal' - welcome to any cocktail hailing from the wonderful city of New Orleans. Hurricane, Vieux Carre, the Sazarac, you just can't go wrong in the Big Easy. And the food is just as, if not more decadent than the hooch. Awesome channel and awesome content, you do a great job presenting and demonstrating technique.
I’ve had many at Pat O’Briens and it’s odd to see one that’s not red. But with two hurricanes in the gulf and one maybe hitting us here in Houston I’ll need to whip up a batch of these. And yes, do a Piña Colada video. Once I learned how to really make one I realized what a great drink it can be.
From our talk about the hurricane before. Yes theres still people that are having hurricane partys. I know of 2 in Florida 1 in Georiga and a buddy called from mobile Alabama and they are having a few around him. Crazy ant it? Btw if you like the hurricane drink. And you have southerner comfort available try it in one and see what you think.
A lot of the tiki and heavy fruit/ alcohol drinks are still popular on the beach bars around the gulf of Mexico or where until that big hurricane 2 years ago.
Love The Hurricane nice simple rum sour. But the mandatory garnish is the cocktail umbrella blown open :) and Yes a good Pina Colada is always nice. Would like to see your take on what you use for the coconut cream/milk. In my area I do not have sweeten.
Haha I know, I should have mentioned it- I wanted to do that but couldn’t get my hands on them before we shot (lockdown is making some stuff difficult!). I have them by the time we did the Pina Colada...I did use Coco Lopez but you can definitely just mix regular coconut cream with cane sugar syrup to make your own 😊
I had indeed never seen a version this simple, sounds delicious ! I was surprised to see lemon juice instead of lime juice, was this what the original recipe called for ? I'm curious about the choice because my instincts would have told me to choose lime Edit : sorry, just now read the description.. Thanks for the info ! :)
They’re actually water taps- filtered still and sparkling! Nomada doesn’t have any beer taps as it’s more of a wine focus, and just has some bottles. At Bomba we have 8 taps and rotate through delicious local and independent beers 😋
Just made myself a Hurricane: 60ml Appleton Estate Signature Blend, 60 ml Plantation 3 Star, 60 ml home made passion syrup and 60 ml freshly squeezed lemon juice. Oh my goodness (pun intended) what a cocktail! The only issue I have with it is that it's so darn sweet. I don't want to cut the amount of passion syrup because it might reduce the flavor of the passion fruit so I was thinking of adding 30-60 ml of carbonated water to it next time. But thanks for this recipe! It seems pretty much all others include orange juice and grenadine and I don't see this drink needing either. Like you said, this drink is lethal. I'll have to go and make myself another one... but don't worry, I'm Finnish, we get 4 Zombies at any bar. Hölökyn kölökyn!
Soda water really helped. It's still sweet, but not toooo sweet for my sweet teeth. I now made one with Eldorado 12 yrs instead of Appleton. It works. I would be surprized if it didn't work with almost any rum... Don't know if I have the guts to try Wray & Nephew overproof 63% instead of Plantation 3 star. But then again, you only learn by doing mistakes.
That's a Mary Poppins handbag of a flask - passion fruit keeps popping in and out of it! I had a Hurricane in Hard Rock Cafe and it was super rich, too much syrupy fruit juice. Not that I didn't suck the life out of it. I'll give this recipe a try.
Honestly not in particular, for home I like to find fun vintage stuff and in the bar it’s usually whatever is low cost, practical but still looks quite nice on Cocktail Kingdom or Barware.com.au.
It was my understanding that fassionola syrup not passion fruit juice was the original recipe Regardless it’s a great drink Thank you Please keep them coming please!
Hey pal! I deliberately didn’t use Fassionola because I think that’s where a lot of day-glo sticky ones go wrong (using a bad one!) and from my research it seems that the Fassionola was actually a bit of a later invention. This is a good article and has a tasty sounding homemade recipe for it if you’re interested! www.liquor.com/articles/hurricane-cocktail/
Behind the Bar blog.distiller.com/hurricane-cocktail/ This is my source for the fassionola syrup statement As to modern versions I completely agree they are all dayglo garbage And I have used the liquor.com recipe It is rather tasty but I suspect it’s not the original nor will the original be found I absolutely love you vlog You have taught me a significant amount in a short time and I thank you for it! Keep up the great work
I reckon so, just try to find an unsweetened one so it still has a good tartness to it! I don’t think I’ve even seen passionfruit juice to be honest whereas the pulp is in every supermarket here- weird how things change from country to country!
I defer to Cara, of course. But the version I was taught (and the way I've always made it since) was with passion fruit juice and lime juice. Now, I suppose the lime will give it the extra tartness that Cara says the drink needs and the passion fruit juice lacks. So maybe it balances out in the end? I'll have to do a blind test. ;-)
Ooh that’s a tough one, and they’re all a bit different- what do you normally drink? I guess the closest would maybe be a really heavily sherried whisky like Glendronach in terms of the sweetness, but there’s usually a bit of funk and spice there as well which is sort of like a really chewy rye whiskey.
Did my first trip to NOLA a few years back and tried hurricanes for the first time. Terrible, way too sugary and syrupy. Would like to try a home made one!
It wouldn’t be a very good video, they’re pretty non existent haha! I reckon a jigger is the most important piece of bar equipment unless you’re really going to put in the time and effort to practice proper free pouring- I never allow it in my bar!
I've gotten rid of excess or leftover rum before by making Glasgow Punch for family at Hogmanay but I am rather taken with the idea of this cocktail... it even uses up both dark & light rum which is nice. Not sure how I'd feel making Glasgow Punch this year considering the colonial/imperial legacy stuff, esp. the colonial toast "To the trade of Glasgow & the outward bound"
Yes, please! I'd love to see a good Piña Colada; especially one as good as a Pain Killer. Most are too sweet, full of cheap flavored rum that is too cheap.
It just depends on the size of the drink really- I make a Mai Tai to a standard 2 shots but I’m assuming those bars must do a larger one! I measure lethality by how easy it is to drink despite the booze, and the Mai Tai certainly falls in to that category too haha.
romaneeconti02 that's traditionally always shaken, I believe. The Pina Colada - you find recipes for both. And since Cara has become my go-to check for any recipes I find, I'd really like to hear her take on it.
Yup, far prefer the stripped down original recipes for the Hurricane. I had one from O'Brien's in New Orleans many years ago (because I thought I had to) and it might have been the worst cocktail I've ever had - overly boozy, a violent pink/red, and disgustingly sweet. Would love to see you make a shaken pina colada. Thanks
Haha it’s on the way but I’m getting nervous now- it has less emphasis on the ‘proper’ and more on the ‘being able to make one whenever I feel like one’ haha.
Ha this reminds me of a funny story when I ordered a hurricane at Pat O'Brien's, thought it was a little weak and then ordered a shot of white rum to enhance it. Then there was absinthe and some dude trying to pick my pocket.
A three legged dog walks into a bar and waddles over to the bartender. The bartender says, "Can I help ya? The dog says, "I'm lookin' for the man that shot my paw"...
You really are adorable. It's almost hard for me to believe that you'd put tattoos on that gorgeous body. Several months ago I saw a RUclips video telling about tattoo removal, and they said that black ink is the easiest to remove. Have you thought about looking into having some of those sessions? You're so beautiful that I think you would do well to give it some serious consideration.
The audacity of this comment, I feel I need a hurricane to get through reading it. What a bizzare thing to comment about a women's body. Please never speak to a woman in real life, thank you!
@@hcol6897 ~ Audacity eh? I guess the Lord was being audacious when he spoke to Moses telling him: "Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord." Leviticus 19:28 in the King James Version. Then you finish up by telling me "Please never speak to a woman in real life". Haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, etc., etc., that's a good one, seeing as how you obviously haven't the first clue as to what real life is all about.

@@jimyost2585 you're very wrong 😊 in all seriousness, would you like me to explain why what you said is massively rude and inappropriate? Because I truly am more than happy to.
I wanted to chime in. I lived in the French Quarter recently for 12 years. I managed a Bourbon Street bar. I knew the GM of Pat O'Briens one block away. He showed me boxes of newspaper articles from the 1940s. I learned a lot, including Pat's original 1942 recipe. The juices in the original Hurricane are orange and lime. Yes, on the light and dark rum (2 oz each). They used a 24 oz Hurricane glass. Same as today. Yes, on the red passionfruit syrup. The drink is most def red. Newspaper articles discuss the red vomit around the streets near Pat O'Briens in the 1940s. Thought I'd share.
Very appropriate as Laura and Marcos just barreled through the Gulf of Mexico here in the Panhandle Florida. Spent many a good time at Pat O’Brians having hurricanes in New Orleans French Quarter while in college. Lots of fun. Thank you for the memories.
Thanks Lynn, hope you guys have escaped the worst of it!
You kept me in suspense until the very end. However now I know. Love it! You're awesome, keep up the great work!
Was turned onto it in the late 80’s and fell in love. Like how you make it simple and sweet with the explanation of the history.
A customer walks into a New Orleans bar. The bartender asks “What’ll you have?” The customer answers “A Corona and two hurricanes.” The bartender says “That’ll be $20.20.”
youre really proud of that one arent you?
This comment made my day! It is a great quality to remain possitive and find the fun in each and every situation?
That gave me a proper lol (although hopefully these hurricanes are NOT lethal!)
Haha! Just spat my coffee out! :)

It’s not “swiped”. I have the exact same glass at home. It was a souvenir gift glass from Royal Caribbean for cruising a certain number of times.

The Hurricane is my favorite easy-to-make summer drink! I absolutely love the lemon juice and passionfruit zing that happens! Love the new vid :)
Yes, please show us how to make a proper pina colada from scratch.
Start with a pain killer and add nothing. Boom. Perfect pina colada.

I just had I hurricane 2h ago! Nice too see we're in the same mood!
I wouldn’t watch this if Cara wasn’t the host. She’s amazing.
I’d still watch but she makes it far more engaging and enjoyable.
That was a solid recipe; last time I made one it was with over-proof rum...pretty lethal, lol. Will be trying this straight away! Great job as always.
A lot of the best tiki and tiki adjacent drinks were originally rum sours with a split base of rum and then the simple syrup and lemon are subbed out for more "exotic" sweeteners and citrus.
Totally, it’s a really useful way to break it down.
Love the way you say "Cherry"
I don’t really even need to drink a hurricane. Your presentation is a delight already. Thank you!

Last one I had was on Cocoa Beach, Florida. Yum!
I’ve had many at Pat O’Briens and it’s odd to see one that’s not red. But with two hurricanes in the gulf and one maybe hitting us here in Houston I’ll need to whip up a batch of these. And yes, do a Piña Colada video. Once I learned how to really make one I realized what a great drink it can be.
One of my favourites! Apparently the red cane later at O’Briens...
Yes please for this drink. And yes please for every drink.
Piña colada!!

Very good if your feeling unde the weather... Which is probably most of Melboure atm! LOL
Great Vid as always.

And here I was feeling adventurous when moving into bourbons, but I still love that glass.
This sounds considerably better than the drink my friend who worked in New Orleans hotels would call “the stain that never leaves”

They’re actually water taps- filtered still and sparkling! Nomada doesn’t have any beer taps as it’s more of a wine focus, and just has some bottles. At Bomba we have 8 taps and rotate through delicious local and independent beers 😋
I've always been curious, where do you get your fruit juicer? It's so big!
It’s just the one they have at Nomada, from the local hospitality supplier. It’s meant to be for oranges haha.
That looked delicious and fresh as
Looks delicious! Thanks :) can I request sangria?

Great video, thanks people on certain antidepressants or certain beta blockers need to be careful with grapefruit juice or passion fruit juice.

What's your opinion on adding pomegrate?
I like the tartness of the passion fruit and let that shine but pomegranate is also delicious!

I had a Hurricane in Hard Rock Cafe and it was super rich, too much syrupy fruit juice. Not that I didn't suck the life out of it. I'll give this recipe a try.

Hey pal! I deliberately didn’t use Fassionola because I think that’s where a lot of day-glo sticky ones go wrong (using a bad one!) and from my research it seems that the Fassionola was actually a bit of a later invention.

Just food for thought
I’ll be having one right away...
Any chance you can do a rum punch for a party??
I want to do a full episode on Punches, there’s such amazing history there!
Behind the Bar awsome!! Especially with summer around the corner!
Yes, make a pina colada!
I can't seem to find passionfruit puree, would passionfruit juice work as an ingredient for the syrup?
I reckon so, just try to find an unsweetened one so it still has a good tartness to it! I don’t think I’ve even seen passionfruit juice to be honest whereas the pulp is in every supermarket here- weird how things change from country to country!
I defer to Cara, of course. But the version I was taught (and the way I've always made it since) was with passion fruit juice and lime juice. Now, I suppose the lime will give it the extra tartness that Cara says the drink needs and the passion fruit juice lacks. So maybe it balances out in the end? I'll have to do a blind test. ;-)
Never tried dark rum yet. What is it comparable to?
Ooh that’s a tough one, and they’re all a bit different- what do you normally drink? I guess the closest would maybe be a really heavily sherried whisky like Glendronach in terms of the sweetness, but there’s usually a bit of funk and spice there as well which is sort of like a really chewy rye whiskey.
Did my first trip to NOLA a few years back and tried hurricanes for the first time. Terrible, way too sugary and syrupy. Would like to try a home made one!
Unfortunately it does sound like they’ve lost their way even in their birthplace, but I’d definitely still want to drink one if I was there!
romaneeconti02 it happens unfortunately!
Can you do a video showing off your free pouring skills
It wouldn’t be a very good video, they’re pretty non existent haha! I reckon a jigger is the most important piece of bar equipment unless you’re really going to put in the time and effort to practice proper free pouring- I never allow it in my bar!
It’s pretty common in western United States bars; it’s enjoyable to watch the bartender eyeballing it, very Jazz in its style
Tart and refreshing. Reminds me of something.
I've gotten rid of excess or leftover rum before by making Glasgow Punch for family at Hogmanay but I am rather taken with the idea of this cocktail... it even uses up both dark & light rum which is nice.
Not sure how I'd feel making Glasgow Punch this year considering the colonial/imperial legacy stuff, esp. the colonial toast "To the trade of Glasgow & the outward bound"

"Cheris" 😂 too cute
🍒
Good timing as hurricane Laura is about to crash into my house in Texas in less then a day
Look after yourself pal!
Drinking game idea: fire up any Behind the Bar playlist. Drink every time Cara says “pop”
😂
Could you use puree instead of syrup? 🤔
Absolutely! You may just have to check the balance if it’s unsweetened.
Yes, please! I'd love to see a good Piña Colada; especially one as good as a Pain Killer. Most are too sweet, full of cheap flavored rum that is too cheap.
I always like to keep it simple!
Irish coffee next pls?
Are you a mind reader 😜?
Now I know! 😛😜
Pina coladas are my favourite drink, a video would be great
Me thinks you won't have to wait too long 🍹
Great video. and again I am thursty! hehe
pina colada next! :)
Love me a proper Hurricane (because now I know :P) Also... I like Pina Coladas... Getting caught in the rain...
Stay tuned!
"Pretty Lethal"? What would you say about a Mai Tai? In a NYC bar, there was a two drink maximum imposed on the Mai Tai!!
It just depends on the size of the drink really- I make a Mai Tai to a standard 2 shots but I’m assuming those bars must do a larger one! I measure lethality by how easy it is to drink despite the booze, and the Mai Tai certainly falls in to that category too haha.
Behind the Bar The same bar made a drink called a Zombie. I think the bar was called Hawaii Kai. It was a real NY tourists’ trap.
Alexander Sahlman yeah most bars have a 2 drink max on the Zombie - it uses overproof rum!
Pina colada sounds fun. Would that mean using a blender?
Not this time, but I reckon a full episode on blended drinks would be a laugh as well!
Yes to the Pina Colada! And while you are at it, how about a Painkiller?!
A few calls for the Painkiller now, it’ll have to go on the list!
Pina Colada, please. Blended or shaken?
I think blended drinks need a whole episode to themselves so shaken this time!
romaneeconti02 that's traditionally always shaken, I believe. The Pina Colada - you find recipes for both. And since Cara has become my go-to check for any recipes I find, I'd really like to hear her take on it.
Where in Australia do you bartend?
Melbourne! At Bomba Rooftop, but it’s closed just now obviously...

Would love to see you make a shaken pina colada. Thanks
Coming up!
Yo Cara, how are things going over there? Are you able to start filming again? Please make some Cognac related cocktails once you do!
Not yet unfortunately, but luckily we broke out the brandy for a couple the last shoot day...
Now please show us how to make a proper piña colada. We want to know.

I mean, that’s definitely not responsible service of alcohol...
Not the Bob Dylan song? I was so mislead.. I'm disappointed.
*thumbs down*
@@BehindtheBar no, I cannot do that. Always up.
If religion neutral heaven has bar, you will be running it. It's devine indication Miss/Mrs Devine.
Surely by that point I’ll have earned a spot on the other side of the bar with someone making me drinks?! Haha
New Orleans drinking is cheap I wonder how much it costs in her neck of the woods
A lot. Alcohol taxes in Australia are massive, so a decent standard pour will be $10 a nip. A cocktail with 4 shots would be $40 plus!
Behind the Bar
There has to a map which shows cheap countries to drink in , have you made a list that can be shared
This woman drinks ants in her gin! #neverforget

You really are adorable. It's almost hard for me to believe that you'd put tattoos on that gorgeous body. Several months ago I saw a RUclips video telling about tattoo removal, and they said that black ink is the easiest to remove. Have you thought about looking into having some of those sessions? You're so beautiful that I think you would do well to give it some serious consideration.
The audacity of this comment, I feel I need a hurricane to get through reading it. What a bizzare thing to comment about a women's body. Please never speak to a woman in real life, thank you!
@@hcol6897 ~ Audacity eh? I guess the Lord was being audacious when he spoke to Moses telling him: "Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord." Leviticus 19:28 in the King James Version. Then you finish up by telling me "Please never speak to a woman in real life". Haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, etc., etc., that's a good one, seeing as how you obviously haven't the first clue as to what real life is all about.
@@jimyost2585 I take it back - maybe never speak to anyone in real life!
@@hcol6897 ~ Like I said, "Haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, haw, etc., etc." My guess is that you never venture outside of your apartment where you have your face permanently glued to your laptop and haven't the first clue as to what the real world is all about.
@@jimyost2585 you're very wrong 😊 in all seriousness, would you like me to explain why what you said is massively rude and inappropriate? Because I truly am more than happy to.
