Sauce and Shake
The culinary and libatious adventures of a cook and a bartender who like to make their individual offerings as complementary as they are to each other.
Hurricane
There’s something so enjoyable about Hurricanes. There are so many variations but my favorite will always be the classic. A note about the passion fruit element – if you can find fresh passion fruit, the best way to bring in the flavor would be to make a syrup with equal parts sugar and fruit cooked over low flame for 15-20 minutes, then strain out the solids. If that isn’t an option, you can usually find some delicious passion fruit nectar in the fresh juice section of your grocery store and it works perfectly as well.
