Our week has felt like a hurricane! We are hosting 3 Mexican soccer players for the Dallas Cup Invitational. With the two full-time teenage boys that already live at our house, it has been a lot of fun, but also a lot of work. Aside from the soccer players, we have a case of spring fever! Thus we chose to share The Royal Hurricane with you. With all of the flurry that has been happening around The Blind Pig casa this week, we will be making this post short and sweet.
This tasty drink is easy to make and even easier to drink. Shhh! This just might be the recipe that Royal Caribbean is offering on their cruises for a limited time. (wink, wink) So if you are planning a cruise or just wishing you were, try this easy, tasty and fresh recipe for yourself.
One of the things that we like about this drink is its amazing presentation. Who needs a fancy garnish when you get this beautiful ombre of red, orange and yellow hues? It’s like a sunset in a glass.
The ingredients are simple: 1 1/2 ounce of Zaya Rum, 3 ounces of orange juice, 3 ounces of pineapple juice, a splash of Grenadine, and an extra 1/2 ounce of Zaya Rum float.
The directions are even easier. Pour ingredients over ice, add a splash of Grenadine and top with the extra 1/2 ounce of Zaya Rum! Now you are ready to sail away to the Caribbean even if it is only in your own backyard.
Helpful hint: This Royal Hurricane has a larger volume than most drinks on our site. Make sure to start out with a tall glass or schooner.
This drink is the perfect sipper for pool side parties and barbecues this spring and summer. Try it out and let us know how you liked it!
