Today our beloved Dawgs played LSU in Louisiana. To say this was a painful game to watch is an understatement. At least both teams colors are purple and gold so no matter what happened there was a lot of school spirit!
In honor of Louisiana I made a huge batch of Hurricane cocktails. I have had a hurricane or two in New Orleans and they are super tasty, super fruity and super strong. I mean, super strong. Nothing like almost two full bottles of rum mixed in with grenadine to get a hurricane swirl'n!
Thanks to Emeril Lagasse, the king of southern cuisine, I had a mega batch of hurricanes to bring to our friend's Dawg watching party! Warning, many of the guys thought the drink was a tad sweet, nothing a splash of club soda couldn't resolve. But the rest of us loved it. So much that it was almost gone!
Mix the batch in advance in a large pitcher and place in fridge to get very cold. Serve over ice and with a wedge of orange. This is a great party recipe because it makes a lot of drinks at once.
