Instructions

Tips & Variations

  • Use freshly squeezed passion fruit juice when possible for the best flavor; canned puree works well too.
  • Adjust the amount of sparkling water based on your preference for sweetness and fizz.
  • For a non-alcoholic version, substitute passion fruit liqueur and Prosecco with sparkling grape juice or soda.
  • Chill your glass beforehand to keep the cocktail cooler longer.

Storage

This cocktail is best enjoyed fresh and does not store well due to the carbonation. If you need to prepare ingredients in advance, mix the non-carbonated components and refrigerate, then add Prosecco and sparkling water just before serving.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use other sparkling wines instead of Prosecco?

Yes, you can substitute with other sparkling wines such as Champagne or Cava, but Prosecco is preferred for its light, fruity profile that complements passionfruit well.

What can I use if I don’t have passion fruit liqueur?

If you don’t have passion fruit liqueur, you can substitute with a similar fruit liqueur like mango or peach, or add a bit more passion fruit juice for a non-alcoholic twist.
