This spin on a classic daiquiri goes light on the lime to let the acidity of fresh passion fruit shine. Bolstered by a small of shot of passion fruit liqueur, this drink doubles down on tropical fruit flavor. To complement, I prefer to use Smith and Cross, a lightly aged Jamaican pot-stilled rum with a touch of ripe-banana funk but any rum aged between 1-3 years should work here.
Ingredients
- 1 whole fresh passion fruit
- 1/4 ounce fresh lime juice
- 1/4 ounce simple syrup
- 1/2 ounce passion fruit liqueur, such as Chinola
- 2 ounce gold rum, such as Smith and Cross
- additional passion fruit for garnish (optional)
