  • Small plate for the sugar rim

  4. Rim your glass with sugar.

Notes

  1. Store bought passion fruit puree works well for this drink. Fresh passion fruit works too if you can find it in your area.
  2. Use silver (blanco) tequila for a clean, bright flavor.
  3. Use a few dashes of Cointreau, about 1/4 oz (7 ml). Adjust to taste.
  4. To make the sugar stick, run a lime wedge around the rim before dipping the glass in sugar.
  5. Garnish with a lime wheel or any fruit you like.
  6. To make a pitcher, multiply each ingredient by the number of servings and chill it. Add ice only when you serve, so the drink does not get watered down.
  7. Calories and cost are estimates and change with the brands and puree you use.
