Wake up to "Goodnight Vienna!" What a wonderful drink, despite what one might think is an incongrouous mixture of alcoholic ingredients. In reality, they are incredilby congruent--almost beyond belief, until you sip on this delightful concoction. I mean, Grand Marnier and Ramazzotti! Come on; who in their right mind would mix them together? And then to throw in some Mezcal! Get me a head shrinker!

But pull yourself together, mix the drink using the given recipe, and you'll end up with an incredible before dinner drink, or a very satisfying late evening drink. I rate this libation at 4.5. Come on--mix, stir, strain, and then drink up--but do it responsibly!

Boosted ramazzotti and grand mariner by .25/ea for a more balanced drink for my palate with mezcal- got better.

Mezcal is slightly overpowering - dial back to 1 oz

No... don't drink this. I am not sure where this came from.. and should have used that as a sign to not drink it and to pay more attention to the ratios in which case I would have realized. A tablespoon of matcha powder makes this undrinkable, which I should have realized. Went looking for ref and a bullshit Dr. Oz website as "health" because of cucumber and matcha. May try to rebalance, idea may have some potential but don't try with this much Matcha.

Responding to a trademark request to rename this cocktail, the editor changed it from Hurricane Irma to Hurricane I 2017. See the history. The cocktail's creator should feel free to pick any other name if desired. While I don't acknowledge that the Intent to Use application filed with the USPTO affords the applicant the right to prevent the publication of this recipe, Kindred Cocktails has a "don't be a jerk" policy and does not wish to publish a cocktail using a disputed name. Take your legal fight into the alley out back, please.

As for the cocktail itself, we haven't tried it but it sounds like an interesting sour -- rather unlike the horrid intoxicant poured by the gallon on Bourbon Street to induce public emesis.

What a crazy world.

I think the possible trademark infringement makes the cocktail taste better.

Will change the name from "Hurricane I 2017" to something else.

I used Angostura 1919. The vanilla notes pair very well with the bitter cherry of the Amargo Vallet and the spice of the Falernum. This is really tasty.

I just tried this one and I really enjoyed it! I used aquafaba instead of the egg white (as suggested in the note), which gave the drink a little hint of savory nuttyness. I took the advice of another commenter and upped the Amargo a touch and went a light on the falernum, which I think was a good choice. I also replaced the Trinidad rum with an ounce of Barbados rum (Mount Gay) and a quarter-ounce of a dunder-heavy Jamaican pot still rum (Dr Bird). It all came together to make one of the strangest cocktails I've ever built — but in a good way! Rich, creamy, nutty, funky, and surprisingly well balanced. Big thumbs up from me!

Yea, the Falernumn is awfully high. I'm not sure what the idea was when I made this (apart from Trinidad and Mexico having to be a part of it). Also, IMHO it needs a little simple syrup. I've edited it a bit.

This is a real gem. Lacking a T&T rum in my quiver, I used Hamilton 86 Demerara, and oh man. This'll be the one to take the "edge off" after a long day of selling dinettes and bar stools. No matter your toil, I highly recommend suppressing your woes with this brilliant cocktail. Sláinte!

Slightly modified. Used orange superjuice, which is acid corrected, so dropped the lemon and upped the orange to a full ounce and it was delicious.

Quite a boozy delight.  I really enjoyed this despite the fact that I had the wrong beer on hand (a carmelly lager instead of a crisp dry IPA).  Will try again with the correct beer. 

Love the original, but I make a low ABV version of this with Giffard Apertif syrup (instead of Campari) and Athletic's Run Wild IPA (both non-alcoholic). Keep the tequila for what results in something with about as much alcohol as a radler.

I like the combination of flavors - Campari + IPA is a keeper. However, I prefer this one a bit stiffer. At 8 oz of IPA you start to lose the other flavors. Depending on the IPA and its IBU rating, I would use 6 oz max. Tested with both 4 oz and 6 oz which were both more enjoyable to me, but the original is still quite tasty.

This is nearly identical to "End of Days" with the exception of agave syrup vs demerara syrup and the amount of IPA (8 oz vs 1 oz). I took the suggestion in a previous comment and went with 6 oz, which seemed about right.

Agree that this is more of a summer drink

Very simple, very good. The alpine flavors are well proportioned and pair well with the rye.
