History & Origins

The Downshift is a contemporary American bar creation with no documented single origin, typical of the custom punch and hurricane-style drinks that emerged in the late 20th century. Its name evokes the automotive metaphor of shifting into a lower gear for increased power. The exact creator and date are unknown.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: sweet tropical fruit punch, citrus from the Sprite, and sharp high-proof rum. Palate: candied fruit sweetness up front with a tequila agave warmth and a fiery, boozy finish from the 151 float. Finish: hot and sweet with lingering tropical fruit.

Pro Tip

Add the Bacardi 151 float last and do not ignite unless in a controlled, safe setting — extinguish any flame before drinking.
