Trader Vic's Passion Fruit Syrup Discontinued? - Tiki Drinks and Food

The bottles arrived yesterday, and the new syrup is absolutely vile. It's completely unusable except to make orange sno-cones or something. Needless to say, I was pissed at having wasted all that money, and shot off a nasty e-mail to the TV store. I just can't understand why they decided to completely reformulate a decent product and make it terrible. I'd love to make my own syrup, but I've scoured the local Mexican and Asian food stores, and the only thing I could find was some sort of passionfruit soda pop that contains no actual juice. On the advice of the Bum, I ordered a couple of bottles of the Finest Call Passionfruit Puree today, and will see how that works out.
