How to Make The Best Passion Fruit Mango Mojitos

Two weeks ago, I harvested the very last passion fruits from my vine, and today, we’re using them to make these pineapple passion fruit mojitos!

Before we get started, if you haven’t pre-ordered Chicano Bakes yet, books are currently 20% off over at Target through the 24th (and if you have a RED Card, you can get an extra 5% off too). If you happen to pre-order the book, make sure to keep the receipt because I have an incentive I’ll be sharing with folks who pre-order the book.

Anyways, back to these mojitos! My passion fruit vines had a really great Summer. I’ve had them in my backyard for about three years now, and I didn’t think they would thrive in this awful Fresno heat, but boy was I wrong. The vines were so vigorous! This year, I probably harvested over 100 fruits, and I’d like to think it was due to me hand pollinating every flower! 

These pineapple passion fruit mojitos are one of the cocktails I come back to time and time again because they are just so easy to make. I made these for a cooking class I taught recently and thought the recipe deserved to live on here too. I know we’re starting to move into Fall but I love that you can easily swap out the passion fruit pulp/juice for mango nectar or guava nectar or any other fruit juice/ pulp that would make a nice pairing with pineapple. Give these a try, and make sure to tag me if you happen to make these! Next week we’ll be diving into another recipe from Chicano Bakes. Nos vemos pronto!
