Instructions
Prep the Ingredients
Fresh lemon juice: Juice the lemons and strain the juice.
Fresh pineapple juice: Place fresh cubed pineapple in a blender and blend on high speed. Strain the juice in a sieve or cheesecloth.
Fresh passion fruit puree: Cut the fruit in half and scoop out only the colorful flesh. Blend on high speed (adding a little bit of water if needed). Strain the juice in a sieve or cheesecloth.
Brown sugar syrup: Place 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to boil and stir until all sugar is dissolved.
Make the Mocktail
Place all the ingredients into a shaker and shake well.
Strain the ice so you only get the juice in your glass.
Serve and enjoy. Place in a highball glass tumbler or curvy hurricane glass for extra flair. Garnish with a slice of fresh pineapple, if desired.
Notes
To make a pitcher full of this tropical mocktail, pour all ingredients in the pitcher and mix well. Shake with fresh ice before serving, or pour over fresh ice.
Variations
Spice it up: Add a pinch of nutmeg (or 1 fresh nutmeg) or other spices to the brown sugar syrup. Let steep at least 1 hour before straining the simple syrup. Swap the citrus: Instead of lemon juice, use lime juice or even orange juice to give this tropical drink its zesty kick. Make it a piña colada: Add coconut cream and blend the mixture well.
