as remembered by me - PLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY AND WHEN YOU ARE NOT DRIVING!!
ok, i did some research and spent some time jogging my very slow memory and here is what i remember a flaming hurricane to be. this is a drink best sipped with 2 or 3 people having straws in one glass.
1 shot light rum
1 shot dark rum
1 shot spiced rum
1 shot coconut rum
1 shot vodka
1 shot sloe gin
1 shot Bacardi 151 or Everclear (save for top of drink)
cranberry juice
pineapple juice
orange juice
grenadine
Mix everything except the 151 or Everclear and pour over crushed ice in a very large glass (hurricane glass if you have them). Garnish with a maraschino cherry, orange slice and pineapple wedge. Top with a sugar cube soaked in the Bacardi 151 or everclear, pouring the remainder of the 151 or Everclear on top. Light sugar cube just before serving. Serve lit.
WARNING - alcohol burns almost an invisible blue, the sugar helps turn the flame orange
I prefer the Bacardi 151, it tastes better to me, but as the alcohol burns mostly off, the Everclear isn’t really tasted. Everclear is pure grain alcohol, Bacardi is made from sugar cane.
WARNING – this drink is a 1 drink per person, served with or after a heavy meal. And plan to sleep where you drink it. Even I, back in my drinking days, did not drink more than 1 ½ and I never drove after drinking one. Because of the juice, you don’t taste the alcohol, and it will sneak up on you.
