The Pat O's Hurricane
Served in a Pat O'Brien's logo glass and garnished
with an orange slice and a cherry, the fruity red concoction was
created during World War II when liquor such as whiskey was in
low supply.
In order to purchase just one case of these liquors,
liquor salesmen forced bar owners to purchase as much as 50 cases
of rum, which was plentiful. In an effort to use the abundance
of rum that Pat O'Brien's acquired, the recipe for the Hurricane
evolved with the help of an eager liquor salesman.
The name came soon after when a glass shaped like
a hurricane lamp was used to serve the fruity rum cocktail.
