The name of this cocktail translates to something like passion by chance, a nod to the power of serendipity that sometimes yields magical results. Aged Mexican tequila, French ginger liqueur, Mexican ancho chile-spiced liqueur, and passion fruit juice, a local favorite in Aruba, meld together in a well-balanced drink that excites the palate. The French Canton Ginger liqueur is made from an infusion of baby ginger with cognac, Tunisian ginseng, Tahitian vanilla beans, and Provence honey, and then finished with French cognac.
