I have theorized that originally the company only made a passion fruit substitute and it was colored red. Later the company added a raspberry flavored version to its lineup, but had to color it red to match the flavor. Then the color of the passion fruit version was changed to orange as it now is. But people were used to the drinks being red and as a result bartenders simply started using the "right" color despite the "wrong" flavor. Again, this is only a theory, but I think it would explain the discrepancy.
