This cocktail recipe was one of those delightful discoveries of this summer. Solero is a decadent, creamy cocktail full of tropical fruitiness, basically capturing the essence of summer in a glass.

Cocktail base is formed by vodka, a crispy clear spirit pairing well with other ingredients and letting the fruitiness of passion fruit take center stage. This fruitiness is brought by puree, syrup and liqueur - a triple threat of passionfruit making a powerful statement. Half and half bring that decadent creamy texture binding the ingredients into a cohesive whole. Modest addition of vanilla liqueur adds a gentle spice elevating the overall cocktail complexity and pairing very well with passionfruit.

All in all, Solero is a remarkably delicious and indulgent cocktail, full of tropical spirit and summer flavours. A true summer hit, that will definitely make a reappearance at my house.
