Fassionola is a typically fruit-flavored (passion fruit and others), red-colored syrup that was frequently used in tropical drinks during the 1930s but is now a relatively unusual ingredient.[1] It also comes in green and gold varieties that are sometimes made to taste differently.[2] It is used as a fruit punch concentrate, and some claim that a red-colored fruit syrup called fassionola was an ingredient in the original Hurricane cocktail.[3][4][5][6] Although a frequent attribution, solid evidence of fassionola's use in the Hurricane from before 1956 is lacking, and it is not known what the precise ingredients were in the earliest version of fassionola.[7]
