All bar toolsThe story of the Hurricane
The Hurricane hails from New Orleans' French Quarter, specifically Pat O'Brien's. In the 1940s, when whiskey was scarce, distributors reportedly pushed the bar to buy large amounts of rum – and the fruity drink helped move the stock. It was served in a glass shaped like a hurricane lamp, which gave it its name.
