Method
Cocktail
- 1
Prepare shaker
Add 8 ice cubes to a cocktail shaker to chill and briefly shake out excess water.
- 2
Combine ingredients
Into the chilled shaker add 2 oz vodka, 1 oz mango liqueur, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, 0.75 oz passion fruit syrup, 2 oz fresh orange juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup.
- 3
Shake
Fill the shaker with ice (if not already full) and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold and slightly frosted.
- 4
Prepare glass
Fill a chilled highball or Collins glass with fresh ice (crushed or cubed as preferred). If you want a layered neon look, add ice after double-straining as instructed below.
- 5
Double strain and pour
Double-strain the cocktail into the prepared glass using both the shaker strainer and a fine mesh strainer to remove pulp and ice shards for a smooth, bright appearance.
- 6
Top with fizz (optional)
If you want a light effervescence, gently float 1 oz club soda on top by pouring slowly over the back of a spoon.
Garnish & Finish
- 7
Place a lime wheel and an orange wheel on the rim or floated on top. Lightly dust 1/4 tsp edible neon cocktail glitter over the surface for a shimmering, neon-sunny appearance.
- 8
Serve immediately with a straw and an optional cocktail pick. Advise the drinker to stir gently once to incorporate any floated soda or glitter.
