Cocktail Description
The Tropical Storm Sailor delivers a powerful punch of flavor that rivals its nautical namesake, whisking you away to distant shores with just one sip.
This robust cocktail combines the bold character of overproof Hamilton Navy Strength rum with the bright acidity of fresh orange juice and the sweet tropical notes of pressed pineapple juice. The Angostura bitters add complexity and depth, creating a balanced drink with surprising nuance despite its seemingly simple composition. Served over crushed ice in an old-fashioned glass and garnished with an orange twist, it's refreshingly easy to make at home with just a few quality ingredients and basic bar tools. The Tropical Storm Sailor works beautifully as a weekend brunch cocktail or as a happy hour sipper when you're craving something tropical but not overly sweet. Its high-octane rum backbone stands up admirably to spicy foods—try pairing it with jerk chicken, spicy fish tacos, or Thai curries for a delightful contrast of flavors.
