Method
How to make a Passion Fruit Daiquiri

Serves 1 · Takes 3 minutes

Next, pour the remaining ingredients into the shaker to join the passion fruit
Add some ice cubes to the mix, seal your shaker, and give it a vigorous shake for about 10-15 seconds or until the shaker feels cold to the touch, indicating a well-chilled mix
Once shaken, use a fine strainer to pour your concoction into a chilled glass, ensuring a smooth pour without any unwanted ice or pulp
Lastly, use the saved passion fruit half as a garnish, placing it on the rim of your glass or floating it atop your drink for a visually appealing and aromatic finish
