Method
Optional Lilikoi Syrup (make ahead)
Make syrup
Combine 0.5 cup passion fruit pulp, 0.5 cup sugar and 0.25 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat and simmer 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let cool. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds if desired. Chill before using.
Cocktail Preparation
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz New Amsterdam Vodka, 1 oz lilikoi (passion fruit) syrup, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice and 0.5 oz cranberry juice. Add a large handful of ice (about 1 cup).
Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the exterior of the shaker is frosty and the mixture is well chilled and slightly diluted.
Strain and serve
Discard ice or water from the chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer if available to catch any pulp or ice shards.
Garnish and finish
Garnish with a lime wheel or a thin lime twist on the rim. Serve immediately.
