Fassionola is one of tiki's genuinely lost ingredients — a red fruit syrup that haunted golden-age bar manuals and then all but vanished, taking a few great drinks with it. Ours brings it back with real fruit doing the work: passion fruit, cherry, and mango, deep red without a drop of dye.
This is the syrup for a Hurricane with history in it — the drink's early versions leaned on fassionola, not just passion fruit — and it makes a Daiquiri taste like it's wearing a vintage aloha shirt. Rum is its native language, but it gets along with gin and vodka, and over soda water it's summer in a Collins glass. A lost chapter of the tiki canon, back in print.
Once opened, refrigerate and use within 90 days — unopened, it keeps for two years from the date of manufacture.
The skulls and flame are almost the exact same color as the rest of the mug, they don’t stand out at all. They should be a significantly different shade of color like in the pictures. I’m disappointed in it a little bit.
