Method

In a cocktail shaker, add strawberries and muddle. Add grapefruit juice, syrup* and orange liqueur. Shake with ice.⁠ Fill a hurricane cocktail glass with crushed ice ¾ full. Strain the cocktail into the glass. Add a small amount of soda water to the top of the ice. Add more crushed ice on top, then slowly pour Empress 1908 over the ice for that gorgeous layered effect.⁠ Serve with a sliced strawberry for garnish and a straw for mixing and sipping!⁠

Notes

*For the syrup, add 400g frozen strawberries⁠, 200g fresh rhubarb (sliced), 1 cup sugar⁠, ½ cup grapefruit juice⁠, and ½ cup water⁠ to a saucepan and mix. Bring to the boil and simmer for 20 mins stirring occasionally. Allow to cool slightly and strain with a sieve. Store in a jar in the fridge and allow to chill before using.⁠
