Raspberry Passionfruit Tequila Sour

Raspberry Passionfruit Tequila Sour is a tequila-based cocktail made with passionfruit juice, raspberry syrup, fresh lime juice, and a foamy finish from egg white or aquafaba. The drink sits between a classic tequila sour and a fruity tequila martini.

It tastes bright, slightly tangy, and smooth on the palate. I like it more than many raspberry margaritas since it feels lighter and less sharp.

This cocktail fits right into the family of raspberry tequila drinks that feel refreshing without tasting sugary. Some drinks feel flat or too sweet after the first sip.

The mix of tequila, passionfruit juice, raspberry syrup, and lime juice brings a bold yet smooth cocktail that works for casual nights, small get-togethers, or weekend treats.

Equipment

• Cocktail shaker
• Jigger or measuring cup
• Fine strainer
• Cocktail glass

Ingredients

• 2 oz tequila silver or blanco
• 1 oz passionfruit juice
• 1 oz raspberry syrup (store-bought or homemade)
• ¾ oz freshly squeezed lime juice
• ½ oz simple syrup (optional, to taste)
• 1 egg white or 1 oz aquafaba
• Ice for shaking
• Fresh raspberries and lime wedges for garnish

Ingredient Notes

1. Tequila: Silver or blanco tequila keeps the drink clean and crisp.

2. Passionfruit Juice: Use pure juice with no added sugar.

3. Raspberry Syrup: Homemade syrup gives stronger raspberry flavor.

4. Lime Juice: Fresh lime juice brings balance to the sweetness.

5. Egg White or Aquafaba: This adds the creamy foam layer. Aquafaba works well for a vegan option.

6. Simple Syrup: Taste first, then add only if needed.

Instructions

1. Add tequila, passionfruit juice, raspberry syrup, lime juice, simple syrup, and egg white or aquafaba to a shaker without ice.

2. Shake hard for about 15 seconds. This dry shake builds the foam.

3. Add ice to the shaker. Shake again for 10–15 seconds until cold.

4. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass using a fine strainer.

5. Garnish with fresh raspberries or a lime wedge. Serve right away.

Tip from me: A longer dry shake gives a thicker foam on top.
