Fassionola is one of tiki's genuinely lost ingredients, a red fruit syrup that haunted golden-age bar manuals and then all but vanished. This one brings it back with real fruit doing the work: passion fruit, cherry, and mango, deep red without a drop of dye. It's the syrup for a Hurricane with history in it - the drink's early versions leaned on fassionola, not just passion fruit.

The Founder's Note

Founder Blair Reynolds has been in the tiki world since 2001, first posting on the Tiki Central message board and touring the last of the old Polynesian palaces, then chronicling the drinks, the rooms, and the bartenders at TraderTiki.com. That writing led to the stage at Tales of the Cocktail, Tiki Oasis, and FEAST, where he's a regular authority on all things tiki. In 2012 he opened Hale Pele in Portland, Oregon, routinely named one of the best tiki bars in the world. BG Reynolds began when a frustrated bartender lamented how hard it was to make cocktail ingredients by hand, to standard, night after night - within months Reynolds built an original orgeat with real almonds and cane sugar to solve exactly that problem, and the rest of the line followed.

How It's Made
