This Delicia Dominicana (Dominican Delight) cocktail recipe is made with Passion Fruit and Dominican Rum. My favorite rum in the world is Columbus Rum, made in the Dominican Republic. It’s hard to find in the States and the only place could find it is at the New York Wine Exchange on 9 Broadway, New York, NY 10004. Any rum can be used to make Delicia Dominicana Cocktail.

Passion fruit is the fruit of the Passiflora vine, a type of passion flower. It has a tough outer rind and juicy, seed-filled center.
There are several types that vary in size and color. Purple and yellow varieties are the most commonly available ones, including:
- Passiflora edulis. These are small round or oval-shaped fruits with purple skin.
- Passiflora flavicarpa. This kind is round or oval with yellow skin and usually slightly larger than the purple variety.
