DIRECTIONS FOR LAYERING
To a chilled Hurricane glass add the Red Layer. Gently spoon on the White Layer then the Blue Layer.
Garnish with a fresh strawberry, a patriotic swizzle stick, cocktail umbrella and straw then serve.
FUN GARNISH TIP: Light a sparkler and light it as you serve if you like, just be safe about it. Clean up any alcohol spills and keep the flame and sparkler away from any open liquor bottles, clothing and kids.
