    One of my favorite things to do when we travel is to go into a grocery store and wander up and down each and every aisle. To me, this is just as good as any museum. You can learn so much about a place by looking at what and how they eat. Food is the fuel that keeps us alive, but it is also a binding force of a culture.

    Food can tell you about the land, but it can also tell the story of the people who call this place home. What new foods have been brought in by immigrants to enrich the cultural landscape? How have people thrived and held on to their ancestry as they settle into a new land? It's all there in the food.

    What makes this margarita so awesome?

    I first made these Passion Fruit Margaritas when we lived in Hawaii and had a yellow passion fruit vine, known there as lilikoi, growing in our backyard. The thing was impossible to contain and spread all over our clothes lines to make a canopy. The fruit would literally fall on my head.

    And because I'm a girl who loves to have a good time, I naturally had to make margaritas. These are decidedly tart, so I use a sugar rim rather than salt to counter the sourness. You could do a combination of sugar and salt if that's your jam. You can also adjust the sweetness of your passion fruit syrup to your liking. And if you've made too much passion fruit syrup, you can always use it for Passion Fruit Green Tea.

    Magical Properties of Passion Fruit

    There's much more reference to passion flower than the fruit amongst witchy resources, but I imagine the correspondences and energies are similar. Anything that's full of seeds is generally associated with fertility, so I'm sure you could use pasion fruit in your fertility and abundance spells.

    The flowers are just as cool and creepy looking as the fruit. They can bring tranquility when there's tension in the household. They correspond with the planet Venus and the element of water, which makes sense, but their astrological sign is fiery Leo. The passion flower is certainly bold and sunny. You can also use the flower to honor the deities Flora, Aphrodite, and Feronia. Use this herb to call in happiness, love, harmony, and healing. (Source: Well Divined)

    Tips for making Passion Fruit Margaritas

    Making a margarita is not rocket science. Simply combine some passion fruit syrup with tequila, lime juice, and Triple Sec or another orange liqueur and pour over ice. If you want to get fancy, add a sugar and/or salt rim to your glass by wetting the rim with water or lime juice and dipping it into your sugar/salt.

    If it's hot outside and you want to go the blended margarita route, add your ingredients including ice to a blender and blend until thick and slushy.

    I like to garnish this with thin slices of lime. I'm not one for munching on passion fruit seeds, but if that's your jam, you can float half a passion fruit on the top or scoop out some of the super cool frog spawn looking passion fruit seeds into your glass as well. Whatever makes you happy.

    How do I make pasion fruit syrup?

    Making your own passion fruit syrup is a simple matter of adding equal parts (say half a cup) sugar and water along with the pulp of about three passion fruits to a sauce pan and heating for about five minutes until the sugar dissolves. Let it bubble for a couple of minutes to thicken, then turn the heat off and leave it to sit for up to a few hours to infuse. Then simply strain the fruit out. You're left with a flavorful sweet, tart syrup.
