Playful Passionfruit Spritz

Ingredients

Passionfruit

Sparkling water (plain or flavored - ginger adds a spicy kick)

Vodka or spirit of choice (optional)

Ice

Mint or lime for garnish

Directions

Perhaps you are fancier than we are, but when our family makes drinks from our farm fruit, we keep things pretty simple.

In a glass, begin with ice and then add 1 part passionfruit juice and 2 parts sparkling water. Adjust to taste if that’s a little intense.

Then, float lime slices and mint in your drink. If you’re feeling it, add a spirit. We like vodka.

Notes

Did you know you can eat everything inside of your passionfruit, including the seeds? To enjoy the juice by itself, cut the top of your passionfruit, and scrape out the seeds and pulp into a small mesh strainer over a small bowl. Use the back of the spoon to separate the juice from the seeds. You can save the seeds for smoothies or salads, if you wish.
