Origins of the Hurricane Cocktail

The Hurricane cocktail was created in the 1940s at Pat O'Brien's bar in New Orleans. Legend has it that during World War II, liquor distributors required bars to purchase large quantities of rum in order to get their hands on more popular spirits like whiskey and scotch. In an effort to use up this surplus of rum, Pat O'Brien's bartender concocted the original Hurricane cocktail using rum, fruit juices, and grenadine.
