To prepare this spritz at home, begin by preparing the mango passion fruit purée using a blender or food processor. Make sure to blend thoroughly so it’s smooth and contains no lumps! Following this, you will then build the spritz in a stemless wine glass (or the glass of your choice). This drink pairs best with spicy and salty flavors, including pad Thai and Cuban salmon topped with tropical salsa, or even guacamole with salty chips!

Mango Passionfruit Spritz Mocktail Recipe

Yield: 1 serving

Target Dose: 2.5 mg THC | 2.5 mg CBD per drink

Equipment:

• Blender or food processor


• Stemless wine glass


• Jigger


• Bar spoon


• Cocktail pick

Mango Mocktail Ingredients:

For the mango passionfruit purée:

• 1 fresh, ripe mango, peeled and pit removed (save a few slices for the garnish!)


• 2 ounces (60 ml) passion fruit juice (see note)


• 1 ounce (30 ml) fresh squeezed lime juice


• ½ teaspoon blue agave syrup

For the spritz:

• Ice


• 2 ½ ounces (75 ml) mango passionfruit purée


• 1 ½ ounces (45 ml) passion fruit juice (see note)


• ½ ounce (15 ml) fresh squeezed lime juice


• Top with WYNK Juicy Mango (7.5-ounce can)


• Lime wheel, slices of mango, and edible flowers for garnish

Directions:

1. Add the mango, passion fruit juice, lime juice, and blue agave syrup in the bottom of a blender or food processor. Blend on high until smooth, then set aside.


2. In the bottom of the stemless wine glass, add ice, then top with the mango passion fruit purée. Make sure to save any leftover purée for another round (the recipe should yield about 4 ounces).


3. Add the additional passion fruit juice and lime juice, then stir to combine.


4. Top the drink with WYNK Juicy Mango, pouring slowly until the glass is full. Stir using a bar spoon.


5. Garnish with a lime wheel, slices of fresh mango on a cocktail pick, and an edible flower. Enjoy immediately.

Note: When sourcing passion fruit juice, look for cold-pressed passion fruit juice (preferably not from concentrate) to fully capture the tangy sweet notes of the fruit’s flavor. The flavor of this drink can also vary depending on how sweet your mango is. Feel free to adjust the lime juice and agave syrup up or down, until you find your preferred balance.
