Notes
Above, I have a recipe for ginger liqueur that takes a couple of days to make (it's worth it!). Otherwise, ginger liqueur can be picked up at a specialty liquor store.
When purchasing a passion fruit puree, look for one as minimally sweetened as possible (10 percent or less). Passion fruit is naturally very tart which helps with the sour aspect of the cocktail.
