Tropical Mojito Magic
The Fruit Symphony
Our Passion and Tango starts with perfectly ripe Philippine Carabao mangoes, known for their honey-sweet flesh and minimal fiber. We blend these with tart Vietnamese passionfruit, creating a tropical base that's both sweet and tangy. Fresh mint leaves are muddled and infused, bringing that signature mojito freshness that makes this sorbet utterly refreshing.
The Mojito Connection
Traditional mojitos balance rum, lime, mint, and sweetness. We've reimagined this classic cocktail by replacing lime with passionfruit's natural acidity, using mango's sweetness instead of sugar, and keeping the mint fresh and vibrant. The result? A frozen mojito that's more complex and refreshing than the original.
