In honor of (expectation of, preparation for, response to) Hurricane Irene who is twirling her wickedly wet hoola-hoop off the East Coast right now (and headed my way), I figured a Hurricane Cocktail would only be fitting for my Friday cocktail this week.  Hurricane recipes vary but this one has both light and dark rum, grenadine, fresh orange juice, fresh lime juice, and a spit of sugar.  I have plans to go to Connecticut this weekend which may get disrupted and if they do, I’m hoping I drink enough of these to sleep right through the storm.  Goodnight Irene.
