Cinco de Mayo Drink Recipes: Passion Fruit Margarita

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my privacy policy.

Today, we are going to round out your Cinco de Mayo celebration meal. ย Cinco de Mayo drink recipes are so easy to come by {think margaritas, mojitos and beer} but this one offers something a little different from the regular old margarita.

How about a delicious combination of passion fruit juice, agave syrup and a little spice from jalapeno infused tequila?

What You’ll Need:
– 2 ounces passion fruit juice
{if you can’t find just passion fruit juice, Welch’s makes a blend that is frozen and works in a pinch}
– 1 ounceย jalapeno infused tequila
–ย 1 1/2 ounces lime juice
– 1 1/2 ounces agave syrup
– salt or sugar for rim {optional…I use a sugar, salt chili powder mixture from Williams-Sonoma}
– 1 sprig of rosemary for garnish

Let’s Make It:
1) ย Combine the passion fruit juice, tequila, lime juice and agave syrup in a cocktail shaker with ice. ย Shake to combine and chill.

2) ย Wipe the rim of a cocktail or margarita glass with lime juice. ย Dip in sugar or salt mixture. ย Fill the glass with ice.

3) ย Pour shaken margarita into prepared glass. Enjoy ๐Ÿ™‚

Looking for something to enjoy your cocktail with? ย How about a cilantro turkey burger with tomatillo dressing? ย Throw in some chips and salsa, or maybe even a little bacon guacamole,ย and you’ll have the ultimate celebration meal for Cinco de Mayo!
