Ingredients

Makes 1 serving. Ingredient quantities update with the selected batch size.

2 oz passion fruit juice or puree
1 oz fresh orange juice
0.5 oz fresh ginger juice
0.5 oz honey syrup
2 oz sparkling water
Edible gold flakes, for garnish
Gold sugar, for rim
Dehydrated orange wheel and cherry, for garnish

Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Prepare the glass
Prepare the rim: spread gold sugar on a plate. Run an orange wedge around the rim of a coupe glass and dip into the gold sugar.
2
Build the drink
In a shaker with ice, combine passion fruit juice, orange juice, ginger juice, and honey syrup.
3
Add the finishing touch
Shake vigorously for 12 seconds.
4
Garnish & serve
Double-strain into the prepared coupe glass.
5
Garnish & serve
Top with sparkling water, pouring gently.
6
Garnish & serve
Using a small spoon, carefully drop a pinch of edible gold flakes onto the surface of the drink. They will float and shimmer.
7
Garnish & serve
Garnish with a dehydrated orange wheel and a cherry on a gold cocktail pick.
8
Garnish & serve
Serve immediately — the gold flakes look most dramatic when the drink is still.

Recipe Tips

Edible gold flakes are available on Amazon — search for 'edible gold leaf flakes' and look for food-grade certified products.
Passion fruit puree gives a more intense flavor than juice. Both work well.
For a batch version for parties, make the base in a pitcher and add gold flakes to individual glasses when serving.

Make It Your Own

For a crowd: Set out a garnish station inspired by the city and batch the main drink base in advance. Finish every glass over fresh ice.

Easy swaps: Use a regional fruit or spice substitute that keeps the recipe's overall color and flavor direction. Use a familiar local soda or sparkling water in place of a specialty mixer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need specialty ingredients?

No. The recipe is designed to keep its city-inspired character even with accessible grocery-store substitutions.

Can I turn this into a party theme?

Yes. Match the glassware, garnish, and snacks to the city inspiration.
