Substitute
Sometimes, I like to switch things up in my Passionfruit Punch Cocktail. If you’re out of passionfruit juice, try using mango or pineapple juice instead. 🍍 They both give a refreshing twist and keep the tropical vibes going!
Here are a few other substitution ideas for this cocktail:
- Vodka: Use white rum for a slightly sweeter taste.
- Lime juice: Lemon juice works as a tangy substitute. 🍋

You can also play around with garnishes! Add a slice of orange or a few mint leaves for extra flavor. 🌿
