RECIPE

Pour .25oz of Bols Blue into bottom of a pilsner glass. Add crushed ice nearly to top. Layer Hurricane over top of Bols Blue and then top with Pina Colada Foam. Garnish with 3 Pineapple leaves, Pineapple & Cherry Flag and a brightly coloured straw.

Hurricane – Add to mixing tin 2.5 oz J Wray White Rum, 2 oz of Fassionola Syrup, 1.5 oz of lemon juice and 1 full dash of Ms Better Pineapple Anise Bitters. Shake with cubed ice.

Pina Colada Foam – Add to ISI Canister 1 can of coconut milk, 6 ounces pineapple juice, 2 ounces of J Wray White Rum, 1 full dasher of Ms Better Pineapple Star Anise bitters. Charge with N02 Canister and shake hard to combine.

 

Description: The New York Times said of Milstead’s 1980s films: “Those who could get past the unremitting weirdness of Divine’s performance discovered that the actor/actress had genuine talent, including a natural sense of comic timing and an uncanny gift for slapstick.” This cocktail is homage to Harris Glenn Milstead better known as the famous drag queen Divine.  It is a combination of three notorious tiki drinks Blue Hawaii, Hurricane and Pina colada all combining to form an outrageous performance similar to Divine’s body of work.
