Deliciously Unique Raspberry Passionfruit Tequila Sour
What sets this cocktail apart is the playful fusion of juicy raspberries and exotic passionfruit—paired with the bold edge of tequila and the subtle bitterness of fresh lemon. Finished with a silky foam, it brings a sophisticated twist on the classic sour, effortlessly blending bright fruit and premium spirits for a drink that keeps you coming back for more.
Preparing the Perfect Cocktail Foam
The silky top layer is achieved by incorporating egg whites (or aquafaba for a vegan version), creating the iconic smooth foam that sours are known for. Shake the ingredients without ice first (a “dry shake”) to build the foam, then add ice for a second shake to chill and dilute. Triple strain into a glass for that picture-perfect, velvety finish.
Assembling Your Raspberry Passionfruit Tequila Sour
Pour your shaken cocktail into a chilled coupe or old-fashioned glass. Garnish with a twist of lemon or a few fresh raspberries for an elegant touch. This eye-catching drink looks as good as it tastes, ready to steal the spotlight at any celebration.
Serving Suggestions for Show-Stopping Crazy Cocktails
Serve alongside light appetizers—think salty roasted nuts or charcuterie—to complement the vibrant citrus and berry notes. For a playful presentation, rim your glasses with a mix of sugar and crushed freeze-dried raspberries. This cocktail pairs beautifully with a summer cheese board or Mexican-inspired small plates.

Each Raspberry Passionfruit Tequila Sour serves one and contains roughly 180–220 calories, depending on sweetener and juice adjustments. It’s a lower-calorie option for cocktail enthusiasts—and vegan-friendly if you swap egg white for aquafaba.
