Native to Brazil, passion fruit (or maracujá) adds a pop of sweetness to a whole array of confections, including popsicles, pastries, sorbet, and — for the health-conscious — salads!
It also happens to be an excellent addition to cocktails. 🍹💕 In celebration of our new, limited-edition Passion Fruit Cocofloss, we’re sharing a passion fruit recipe that will really get your party started.
Passion Fruit Punch (Poncha Maracujá)
Passion fruit packs a punch, and, fittingly, so does this cocktail. Blended with Brazil’s national spirit, cachaça, a distilled beverage made from fermented sugarcane juice, the drink is strong. Sip slowly and smile broadly.
