Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love this recipe because it delivers big flavor with very little effort. The balance of sweet and tart makes it incredibly refreshing, and the foamy top gives it that classic sour-style finish I always enjoy. I also appreciate how customizable it is, since I can easily adjust the sweetness or turn it into a non-alcoholic version when needed.

Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of Ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

2 oz base spirit of choice
1 oz passionfruit juice
1 oz raspberry syrup
3/4 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 oz simple syrup (optional, to taste)
1 egg white or 1 oz aquafaba
ice for shaking
fresh raspberries and lime wedges for garnish

Directions

I begin by preparing everything ahead of time so the process feels relaxed. I juice the lime, measure out all the liquids, and make sure my raspberry syrup is ready.

In a cocktail shaker, I combine the base spirit, passionfruit juice, raspberry syrup, lime juice, and egg white or aquafaba. I shake the mixture vigorously without ice for about 15 to 20 seconds to create a thick, creamy foam.

After that, I add ice and shake again for another 15 to 20 seconds until the drink is well chilled and smooth. I double-strain it into a chilled coupe or martini glass, making sure the texture stays silky.

To finish, I garnish with fresh raspberries or a lime wedge, then enjoy immediately.

Servings And Timing

This recipe makes 1 serving.
Preparation time is about 5 minutes, with a total time of roughly 10 minutes.

Variations

I like switching things up depending on the occasion. Sometimes I replace the passionfruit juice with mango or pineapple juice for a different tropical flavor. If I want a lighter drink, I reduce the raspberry syrup slightly and skip the simple syrup. For gatherings, I batch the ingredients without the egg white and serve over ice for easy pouring.

Storage/Reheating

I always prefer this drink freshly made. If I need to prepare it ahead of time, I mix everything except the egg white and ice and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. When I’m ready to serve, I add the egg white, shake, and pour. This drink is served cold, so reheating is not needed.

FAQs

Can I make this without egg white?

I often do. I either leave it out completely or use aquafaba for a similar foamy texture.

Is this drink very sweet?

I find it well balanced, but I always taste and adjust. I add simple syrup only if I want extra sweetness.

Can I turn this into a non-alcoholic drink?

I like replacing the base spirit with sparkling water or a non-alcoholic alternative for a refreshing mocktail.

What glass works best for this recipe?

I usually use a coupe or martini glass, but a rocks glass works just fine.

Can I make this for a crowd?

I scale up the ingredients, skip the egg white, and keep the mixture chilled until serving.

Conclusion

This Raspberry Passionfruit Sour is one of my favorite drinks to make when I want something vibrant, refreshing, and a little bit special. I love how simple it is while still feeling elegant, and it always adds a celebratory touch to any moment.
