Passionate Brew Cocktail
What you'll need:
- 2 oz Passionfruit Juice
- 2 oz Spiced Rum**
- 1 oz Espresso
- ½ oz Lime Juice
- ½ oz Maple Syrup
- ⅛ tsp Vanilla Extract
- Dash of Cinnamon
- Crushed or Pebble Ice
**For a mocktail, replace the spiced rum with apple cider. This maintains the complex spiced flavor without altering the cocktail dramatically.
Steps:
- Add rum, passionfruit juice, espresso, lime juice, maple syrup and vanilla to a shaker with ice.
- Shake for 10 seconds.
- Pour into serving glass of your choosing, top off with crushed ice.
- Garnish your drink with a dash of cinnamon, dehydrated lime wheel and cinnamon stick.
- Enjoy!
