Passion Fruit Margaritas
March 29, 2021
This is a simple margarita recipe using passion fruit. So, what is passion fruit? Passion fruit comes from the passion fruit vine.
How to Choose a Passion Fruit
Look for one that feels heavy and is purple or yellow in color. The more wrinkles that the fruit has, the riper it is.
Can You Eat the Seeds?
Yes, you can. They will be a bit tart but don’t waste them. Just don’t eat the rind.
Where do I purchase passion fruit?
Check out a produce market that carries more options than your chain grocery store. If you can’t find it, they make a frozen version that you can find at many grocery stores. Check with your store beforehand.
How do you prepare passion fruit?
You will just cut the passion fruit right in half and scoop out the insides into a bowl.
What is simple syrup, and how do I make it?
It is a way to sweeten your drink without the texture of sugar. To make it, you boil 1 part water and 1 part of sugar until the sugar is dissolved. They do sell it premade at the liquor store.
