Lilikoʻi Margarita

Serves 1

Ingredients

  • 2 oz blanco tequila
  • 1 oz fresh lilikoʻi (passion fruit) pulp
  • ¾ oz fresh lime juice
  • ½ oz agave or honey syrup
  • Coarse sea salt, for the rim
  • Half a passion fruit and a lime wheel, to garnish

Directions

  1. Salt half the rim of a rocks glass.
  2. Shake the tequila, passion fruit pulp, lime, and syrup hard with ice.

Lilikoʻi vines grow wild along the back roads — the fruit is ripe when it wrinkles and falls on its own.
