Equipment

  • Equipment Needed: Cocktail shaker, measuring jigger, muddler (optional), strainer, rocks glasses

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • 2 oz tequila preferably silver or blanco
  • 1 oz triple sec or any orange liqueur
  • 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice about 1 lime
  • 2 oz passion fruit puree fresh or store-bought
  • 1 oz simple syrup adjust based on your sweetness preference
  • Ice for shaking and serving
  • Lime wedges for garnish
  • Sea salt or sugar for rimming the glass, optional

Instructions
 

  • Method
  • Prepare the Glass:
  • If you like a salted or sugared rim, take a lime wedge and run it around the edge of your glass. Dip the rim into sea salt or sugar to coat it lightly. Set aside.
  • Combine Ingredients:
  • In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, triple sec, lime juice, passion fruit puree, and simple syrup.
  • Shake:
  • Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled. This step is crucial as it mixes the flavors and cools down the drink.
  • Strain:
  • Using a strainer, pour the mixture into your prepared glass filled with ice.
  • Garnish:
  • Garnish with a lime wedge or a slice of passion fruit on the rim.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
  • Take a sip and savor the tropical flavors of your homemade Passion Fruit Margarita!
  • Variations
  • Spicy Passion Fruit Margarita: Add a few slices of jalapeño to the shaker before shaking for a spicy kick.
  • Frozen Version: Blend the ingredients with ice instead of shaking for a frozen margarita.
  • Mocktail Version: Replace tequila with coconut water or sparkling water for a refreshing non-alcoholic option.
  • Tips and Substitutions
  • Tequila Alternatives: If tequila isn’t your thing, try using vodka or mezcal for a different flavor profile.
  • Sweetener Options: For a healthier twist, use agave syrup or honey instead of simple syrup.
  • Passion Fruit Substitute: If passion fruit is hard to find, you can use mango puree or other tropical fruit purees for a similar taste.
