At the same time, the purveyors of the award programs are all over the place with implicit vows of brand supremacy and recognition.

Passion fruit syrup is the perfect combination of sweet, sour, and tropical. Passion fruits are naturally sweet but also quite sour, with an almost floral-like aroma. The bright yellow-orange pulp has an intense flavor that’s a little like pineapple, and a little like mango, but with a strong and refreshing acidity. Passion fruit’s tropical sweetness makes it a great addition to many different kinds of drinks, from tangy lemonades to fancy rum cocktails and everything in between.

Lemon, egg white, and club soda create a fun non-alcoholic spin-off of a gin fizz in this toned-down version of the classic cocktail. Egg white shaken with lemon juice creates a foamy texture and tall head. This refreshing lemon-forward mocktail has zesty hints of fresh grated ginger. A creamy addition of heavy cream balances against the acidic lemon and spicy ginger, and you can adjust to your preferred sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup.
