If you are hosting a Super Bowl party and are looking for a creative cocktail option, may I suggest a signature cocktail and beer.
The Sazerac is the official drink of Louisiana, the Hurricane is a more iconic drink when one thinks of New Orleans.

For the official Hurricane recipe, I turned to NewOrleans.com.
Traditional Hurricane Recipe:
2 oz light rum
2 oz dark rum
2 oz passion fruit juice
1 oz orange juice
½ oz fresh lime juice
1 Tablespoon simple syrup
1 Tablespoon grenadine
Garnish: orange slice and cherry
Shake all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and strain into a Hurricane glass filled with ice. Garnish with a cherry and an orange slice.

When think of Indianapolis, no signature drink comes to mind. However, when you say the word “Colt,” all I can come up with is Colt 45. Surprise your Super Bowl guests with some ice cold Colts.
The label of Colt 45 has a fancy kicking horse and horseshoe which, according to Wikipedia, is said to be a reference to its “extra kick” compared to other malt beverages.
Let’s hope that the Colts don’t kick the Saints ass and it’s a good game!
