In honor of the “official cocktail” of Tales of the Cocktail, I came up with a tribute to the iconic Hurricane using ingredients found in some of the best Mai-Kai drinks. Manager Kern Mattei was gracious enough to serve me one ...

Don't look for it on the menu. I was just a fun exercise and challenge to see if I could come up with a worthy Hurricane when Tales announced its annual contest in April. I reviewed both the winning recipe and my Mai-Kai tribute on this new blog post:

It's a sweet and potent concoction that riffs on such classics as the Special Planters Punch and Barrel O' Rum. I hope you enjoy.
