Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Freezer-safe container
  • Citrus juicer
  • Hurricane glass or tall cocktail glass
  • Bar spoon
  • Garnish picks

Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen banana slices from 1–2 ripe bananas
  • 2 oz rum light or dark; dark for deeper flavor
  • 1 oz banana liqueur
  • 1 oz lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 oz simple syrup
  • 1 cup crushed ice
  • 0.5 oz coconut rum or spiced rum optional
  • banana chunk for garnish
  • maraschino cherry for garnish
  • brown sugar sprinkle, optional

Instructions

  • Add frozen banana slices, crushed ice, rum, banana liqueur, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup to a blender.
  • Blend on high until smooth and thick. If too thick, add a splash of lime juice or water and blend again.
  • Taste and adjust sweetness with a bit more simple syrup if desired.
  • Pour into a chilled hurricane or tall cocktail glass.
  • Garnish with a banana chunk and a maraschino cherry; optionally add a light sprinkle of brown sugar. Serve immediately.

Notes

Frozen bananas create the creamiest texture—slice and freeze ahead. Use fresh lime juice for brightness. For a tropical twist, swap half the rum for coconut rum. Enjoy right after blending; leftovers can be re-frozen and re-blended.
