Passionfruit Collins cocktail recipe
After a tropical cocktail this summer? Try the Passionfruit Collins from Bourke Street Green.
Rob Pierce, Bourke Street Green's Bar Manager, says that a Passionfruit Collins is sweet with just a hint of tartness from the lemon juice. This refreshing take on the classic Tom Collins cocktail swaps out simple syrup for a passionfruit liqueur made with real passionfruits - although you can add a dash of syrup if you like your cocktails extra sweet.
