A Storm's A'Coming...Maybe?

Hurricanes are a huge part of living in the southeast. If you've ever experienced one, you know people who live here take them, and the weather programs that follow and warn people about them, very seriously. We as southerners, particularly Charlstonians, also like to have a good time. In no way are we advocating hurrican parties, or making light of one of Mother Nature's most destructive forces. We are, however, presenting you with an opportunity to be well informed, and well hydrated. 

We present to you, a drink recipe for your NOAA Atlantic hurrican season outlook conference party.
