Ingredients
-
KRATOMade Passion Fruit Drink Mix*
-
Pineapple juice
-
Orange juice
-
Cherry Pomegranate juice or grenadine
-
Ice
-
Orange wheel, for garnish
-
Maraschino cherry, for garnish
*For the Kratom drink mix, follow the product label and manufacturer's directions.
Instructions
1. Start With Lots of Ice
Fill your Hurricane glass generously with ice.
Crushed or pebble ice looks especially good here because it fills the tall glass and gives the drink that tropical-bar feeling. Regular ice cubes work perfectly too.
No Hurricane glass? Grab a tall clear glass instead. The drink will still look beautiful.
2. Build Your Fruit Base
Pour the Pineapple juice and Orange juice over the ice. This is where things start getting very tropical.
Pineapple brings the sweet, juicy fruitiness, while Orange adds a bright citrus note that keeps the combination from feeling too heavy.
3. Bring in the Passion Fruit
Add KRATOMade Passion Fruit Drink Mix according to the product directions. Gently stir the drink to bring the Passion Fruit into the fruit base.
At this point, you've already got the beginnings of a very good-looking Hurricane.
4. Bring on the Pink
Now it's time for the Cherry Pomegranate juice or grenadine. Pour it slowly over the ice.
If you want the drink completely blended, stir it all together. If you want those pretty pink and red ribbons moving through the glass, hold off on the stirring for a moment and let the darker fruit component work its way through the ice.
5. Give It the Hurricane Treatment
Add an Orange wheel and a maraschino cherry.
Could you skip the garnish? Technically. But a Hurricane is not exactly known for being subtle.
The Hurricane is not the drink to make when you're trying to be minimalist. If you have a Pineapple wedge or lime wheel nearby, throw that in too.
Recipe note: For the pink storm effect, pour the darker fruit component slowly over the ice before stirring. For an evenly colored drink, stir everything together.

Want That Swirly Pink Storm Look? This is easily the most fun little trick in the recipe. Instead of adding everything and immediately stirring, save the Cherry Pomegranate juice or grenadine for last. Then:
The result looks a little like a tropical storm moving through the glass—which is pretty fitting for a Hurricane. That's also what makes this Hurricane mocktail, with its new twist, feel like more than just another fruit drink. |
Let's Talk Garnishes
The classic Orange wheel and maraschino cherry are a pretty unbeatable combination. But if you're making these for a party, there's no reason to stop there.
Try:
-
A Pineapple wedge
-
A lime wheel
-
Fresh Orange slices
-
A fruit skewer
-
Pineapple, Orange, and Cherry together
For Mardi Gras or a tropical-themed party, go all in with the fruit garnish.
