    Ingredients for passion fruit mojitos - limes, rum, mint, sugar, passion fruit

    Ingredients to make passion fruit mojitos

    • Frozen passion fruit cubes: Pitaya is the brand of frozen, seeded passion fruit puree that I used. It can be ordered online or found at Target. Alternatively, you can use 1 tables passion fruit syrup, or 3 tablespoons seeded passion fruit puree.

    What does passion fruit taste like?

    Passion fruit has a very bright, tart flavor. It borders on sour. If you like tart foods, you will love passion fruit.

    Mojitos are traditionally made with white rum. But this recipe is also delicious with dark rum, vodka, or even tequila.
