Coconut Passionfruit Creme: A Dry January Recipe from Belle Époque, New Orleans

Dry January, an increasingly popular month-long break from all things boozy, has almost come to a close. We have a few members of the Belle Époque staff participating themselves and a menu of Dry Agents to keep the party going without the proof. Belle Époque Bar Maven, Laura Bellucci, was kind enough to share a recipe for one of her favorite mocktails, the Coconut Passionfruit Creme.
