My mom helped me come up with this one, so I have to give her a shout-out. I wanted to use the incredible BG Rreynolds Lush Grenadine, but I didn't want to make "just another tequila sunrise," so I changed it up and even included some of their outstanding passion fruit syrup! Mom named it.

I have a PhD in chemistry, which is basically just mixology you're not supposed to drink, so the shift from lab to bar was pretty obvious.

Add ingredients, minus the grenadine, over ice. Shake. Strain into a hurricane glass. Float grenadine down the side to layer. Garnish with an orange slice and little umbrella.

Editor's Note

Tropical rum punch meets a vibrant grenadine float. Passion fruit syrup adds a bright, tart backbone to the coconut-forward base.

This sounds like such a fun, vibrant drink! I love the idea of using passion fruit syrup to give it that extra tropical kick—do you have a favorite brand of coconut rum you like to use for this?
