Drinkstuff Cocktail Club Flavour of the Month - Passion Fruit

Welcome to Drinkstuff's Cocktail Club flavour of the month! This month our flavour of the month is the absolutely stunning Passion Fruit! Passion Fruit is a core flavour for cocktails and you can choose to use a syrup, or even fresh Passion Fruits but we prefer our best buds Monins Passion Fruit Fruity Mix. Just like last month, these fruit mixes have the perfect consistency, flavour and even smell, and are shelf-stable what more could you want?! 

Monin Fruit Mix VS Syrup VS Puree

As always we want to make sure why we love the Monin Le Fruit. It's worth remembering that syrups, purees and fruit mixes are all different and the differences are as follows: 

  • A syrup is mostly sugar with fruit flavours
  • A Monin Fruit mix is usually 50% fruit 50% sugar
  • A puree is mostly fruit with a little bit of sugar

We love the Monin Fruit Mix because it's the perfect mix of sugar and fruit. With a consistency closer to a puree, complete with fruity bits and sweetness, the fruit mix is perfect for creating a really punchy drink!
