Hot Passion
Shake ∙ 3 min ∙ 7.9% ABV ∙
The Hot Passion is a vodka highball built with Passoã passion fruit liqueur, cranberry juice, and orange juice, shaken and served long. Frothy from shaking, it pours light and tangy with a juicy citrus wave up front, a clean spirit backbone underneath, finishing tart and lightly sweet.

Tips
- Use freshly squeezed orange juice rather than carton juice — it keeps the drink brighter and less cloying against the sweetened cranberry.
- Shake hard for a full 10-15 seconds so the juices aerate properly before straining over fresh ice.
- Pre-chill the Collins glass so the ice-filled serve stays cold longer without diluting too fast.
