Coconut-Passionfruit Cocktail – best cocktail ever ?
Could this be the best cocktail on our list? So far? So far, it definitely is! The coconut-passionfruit cocktail scores definitely very high on our list. Even at our cocktail parties, almost everyone voted for this cocktail as the best drink of the evening. But is that enough to be the best cocktail ever? Find out for yourself 🙂
We came across this cocktail while looking for recipes with Licor 43. This liqueur is a very tasty and smooth vanilla liqueur. Goes very well with fruity drinks, but also great with coffee cocktails. We found the recipe on the official website of Licor 43 under the name Cocopassion 43 (link to the official site. Worth a browse).
We actually didn’t change much at all because it just tastes great already. In the original recipe, passion fruit nectar is used. Since all the juices that you can buy but always have a very low fruit content, we wanted to at least adapt that. So we used passion fruit puree, which has a fruit content of 90%. This resulted in a real fruit explosion when drinking. This definitely added a lot of flavor to the drink. Also a big change in taste comes about when you vary with the coconut milk. Recently, we used coconut puree instead of coconut milk. This made the cocktail slightly thick but also even tastier.
So yes, the coconut-passionfruit cocktail is the best cocktail ever…at least for us.
