Passionfruit Batida

 

 

“Batida” is Portuguese for “beaten”, as in whipped, and this style of tropical frozen drink hails from the steamy climes of Brazil. Sweetened with condensed milk, they’re a slightly creamy, tropical delight that begs for a little paper umbrella and a Shakira sing-along. Traditionally, batidas are made with the Brazilian style of rum called cachaca (pronounced “ka-SHA-sa”), but feel free to use white rum if you prefer, and any kind of tropical fruit your heart desires.

Ingredients

35ml Cachaca
15ml Passion Liqour
25ml Passionfruit Puree
50ml Condensed Milk
Passionfruit half to garnish

Method

  1. Place all the ingredients in a glass with crushed ice & churn together, like you would a mojito.
  2. Alternatively, place all the ingredients in a blender with ice & blend until you achieve a slushy consistency.
  3. Garnish and enjoy!
