# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It tastes like a vacation in a glass, with tropical brightness that actually makes you feel like you're somewhere better.
  • Takes five minutes to make, which means you can be sipping something delicious before you finish telling the story of your day.
  • One drink that works for both the rum-and-tonic crowd and the sober-curious friends at your table.
02 -
  • Don't muddle mint like you're trying to pulverize it—I learned this the hard way when I made a batch that tasted like bitter grass instead of a refreshing drink; gentle is always better.
  • Fresh passionfruit pulp tastes completely different from even the best bottled juice, and once you taste it, you'll understand why that small effort matters so much.
03 -
  • Chill your glass for ten minutes in the freezer before you start mixing; it sounds fussy, but it keeps the drink cold longer and shows in every sip.
  • If you're making several of these at once, muddle all your lime and mint together first, then divide it among glasses and pour individual proportions of everything else—it saves time and keeps everything consistent.
