I want a mezcal cocktail with banana and passionfruit flavors.
Cocktail Colin says:
If you're looking for a mezcal cocktail that combines the tropical flavors of banana and passionfruit, it looks like we might need to get a bit creative, as none of the top-rated cocktails directly match all your criteria. However, given your interest, we can certainly look at what's available and think about some modifications.
The closest cocktails from our list are the Banana Margarita and the Passion Fruit Margarita. Here's what stands out about them and how we might tweak them to fit your perfect cocktail:
The Banana Margarita – This cocktail already brings the sweet, creamy essence of bananas blended with tequila and triple sec. To incorporate mezcal, you could swap the tequila with mezcal, enhancing the smoky flavor that complements the tropical banana.
The Passion Fruit Margarita – Similarly, this cocktail combines tequila with the lusciousness of fresh passion fruit. To align it more with your mezcal preference, you could replace the tequila with mezcal. For an extra twist, you could even consider adding a small amount of creme de banane to blend in the banana flavor.
By combining these elements, you can create a bespoke cocktail that captures the essence of mezcal with the delightful flavors of banana and passionfruit. Here’s a suggested recipe based on those modifications:
Smoky Banana Passion
- Mezcal (30ml)
- Triple Sec (15ml)
- Creme De Banane (30ml)
- Passion fruit (1⁄2 fresh)
- Agave syrup (7.5ml)
- Lime juice (22.5ml)
Serve in a chilled cocktail glass garnished with a slice of banana and a passionfruit wedge. This modification should give you a delightful combination of smokiness from the mezcal, tropical sweetness from the banana and passionfruit, and a citrusy zest from the lime juice, resulting in a truly unique and refreshing cocktail!

FAQ's
We've collated some quick fire Q&A's on the question to help you find exactly what you're looking for.
What is mezcal?
Mezcal is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from any type of agave plant native to Mexico. It is known for its smoky flavor, which comes from the production process involving roasting the agave piñas in underground pits.
What flavors pair well with banana in cocktails?
Banana pairs well with flavors like chocolate, coffee, caramel, vanilla, and other tropical fruits such as passionfruit, pineapple, and coconut. Its creamy texture can also complement citrus and spice notes.
How do you properly store passionfruit?
Whole passionfruit should be stored at room temperature until they are ripe. Once ripe, they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. The pulp or juice can be frozen for longer storage.
Can I substitute another spirit for mezcal in cocktails?
Yes, you can substitute another spirit for mezcal depending on the flavor profile you desire. Tequila, particularly reposado or añejo, can be a good substitute. However, you will lose the signature smoky flavor that mezcal provides.
What mixers can you use with mezcal?
Mezcal pairs well with a variety of mixers including citrus juices like lime and grapefruit, sweeteners such as agave syrup or simple syrup, and other flavored liqueurs. It also works well with soda water, tonic, or even other spirits in creative cocktails.
