I write this as I sit in my basement and wait out a Tornado warning. Growing up in the Midwest you get used to storms rolling through but it’s always good to be safe. So to the basement I go to ponder all the important things in life…like…I know there is a great drink called the Hurricane…I wonder if there is a drink for Tornados! And wouldn’t you know it…there is!
Here is a recipe I found for the Tornado Cocktail. While I’ve never tried it, sounds like it would be worth a shot or four. Considering it has 4 shots of liquor, it sounds like a drink that could cause quite a commotion! Sign me up!
If any of you have ever tried this cocktail I’d love to know what you think. Enjoy!
