Ingredients

2 ounces vanilla vodka I like Stoli Vanilla best
1 ounce fresh passion fruit juice 2 passion fruits yields 1 cocktail
1/2 ounce simple syrup 50-50 blend
1/2 ounce lime juice
1 ounce prosecco on side

Instructions

For the passion fruit juice

Manual juicing: cut a passion fruit in half and spoon out the pulp/seeds into a fine mesh sieve. Use a muddler or a spoon to crush/push the pulp through the strainer, releasing the juice into a bowl.
Blender: you can alternatively use a blender to separate the seeds from the pulp. Add all of the inside contents of a passion fruit to a blender and pulse a few times. This will loosen the pulp from the seeds and make juice extraction easier. Pour through a fine mesh strainer, leaving seeds and solids behind.

For the cocktail

Combine passion fruit juice, vodka, simple syrup, and lime juice in a cocktail shaker with a large cup of ice.
Shake vigorously for 15 seconds and double strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with an optional halved passion fruit. Serve with a shot of prosecco.

Notes

You can make about 2 cocktails with three passion fruits, depending on how juicy they are. The blender method will help you extract more juice.

Passion fruit seeds are edible, it's OK if some end up making their way into the shaker.

Always double strain this cocktail. This will help catch any remaining solids/seed particles that end up in the shaker.

If you can't find real passion fruit then you can substitute it with store-bought passion fruit juice or puree. Be mindful of any added sugars as you don't want the juice or the cocktail to be too sweet. Goya and Simply Squeeze brands make juices you can buy. I've tried them, they're just not as good as real passion fruit juice.
