History

Passion fruit, gin, wine and ginger ale combine well in this fruity, yet dry, refreshing drink.

This drink is adapted from David Embury's 1948 book, The Fine Art of Mixing Drinks.

Add ice cubes and top with club soda or ginger ale. This original recipe creates a tall drink. It may also be served as a cocktail by omitting the soda or ginger ale.
