Ingredients

Scale

Core Ingredients

  • 6–8 ripe passion fruits (wrinkled skin indicates ripeness)
  • 2 cups cold water (adjust for preferred consistency)
  • 2–3 tbsp honey, agave syrup, or sugar (optional, to taste)
  • Juice of 1 small lime or lemon (optional, enhances citrus notes)
  • Ice cubes (for serving)

Optional Additions

  • Fresh mint leaves (for garnish and extra freshness)
  • Coconut water (for added hydration and a tropical touch)
  • Fresh orange juice (for a naturally sweet twist)
  • Grated or juiced ginger (adds warmth and depth of flavor)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Passion Fruits

  1. Wash the passion fruits under running water.
  2. Slice each fruit in half with a sharp knife.

Step 2: Extract the Pulp

  1. Use a spoon to scoop out the golden, seed-filled pulp into a mixing bowl.
  2. For larger batches, scoop the pulp directly into a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl.

Step 3: Blend or Mash the Pulp

  1. Blender Method: Add passion fruit pulp and cold water to a blender. Pulse a few times to loosen the seeds from the pulp without over-blending.
  2. Manual Method: Press the pulp against a strainer with a spoon to extract the juice without blending.

Step 4: Strain the Juice

  1. Pour the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a pitcher.
  2. Use a spoon to press down the pulp, ensuring maximum juice extraction.

Step 5: Adjust Flavor

  1. Taste the juice and add honey, agave, or sugar if desired. Stir well until dissolved.
  2. If using, squeeze in fresh lime or lemon juice for extra citrus brightness.

Step 6: Chill and Serve

  1. Transfer the juice to the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 30 minutes.
  2. When ready to serve, pour over ice cubes and garnish with mint leaves or lime slices.
  3. Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Notes

  • Sweetness Level: Passion fruit can be naturally tart; adjust sweetness based on preference.
  • Storage Tip: Best consumed fresh, but it can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. Stir before serving.
  • Cocktail Variation: Use this juice as a base for mocktails or tropical cocktails, pairing well with rum, tequila, or vodka.
  • Smoothie Option: Blend with banana, mango, or yogurt for a creamy passion fruit smoothie.
