Passion fruit is a favorite at home and so easy to make! With just a few ingredients you can make a delicious juice for you and your family. This refreshing tropical juice is a staple in our home during the season and we are blessed to be able to grab them right off the vine.
Passionfruit juice can be made using puree from the stores or the fruit itself. This recipe will show you how to make it from the fruit.
HERE ARE JUST A FEW BENEFITS OF DRINKING THIS JUICE.
For one, this juice recipe does not include any preservatives or loads of granulated sugar. The fruit itself is packed with…
- Fiber which aids in digestion, lowering cholesterol and protects agains diabetes.
- Vitamin C which aids in wound healing, Boosts your immune system and Collagen, Cardiovascular health, allergies, common cold symptoms and so much more.
- Vitamin B6 which improves mood, promotes brain health and even is used to ease nausea during pregnancy. (I used to take the supplement during my pregnancies.)
- Magnesium which helps to regulate insulin and healthy glucose levels, Bone health, blood pressure regulation and heart health
- Potassium which protects against osteoporosis, having strokes and helps to prevent kidney stones.
I mean the list goes on but these are just a few that are jam packed into this flavorful tropical drink. Add in some unfiltered raw honey and there are that many more benefits added to the drink.
What you need to to make passion fruit juice:
- Blender
- Measuring Cup
- Fine Mesh Strainer
- Mason Jar or Glass Pitcher
- Measuring Spoons
Homemade Passionfruit (Parcha) Juice
Ingredients
- 4 Passion Fruits
- 2 Cups of filtered Water
- 1/3 Cup of unfiltered raw honey
- 2 Tablespoons of pure vanilla extract
Directions
- Cut the passionfruit in halves.
- Use a spoon to scoop out the pulp into a bowl or blender. I like to use my Magic Bullet blender to then blend the passionfruit and 1/2 cup of water until the seeds are separated from the pulp.
- Once blended, use a fine mesh strainer and pour the juice into a pitcher.
- Use remaining water to pour over the seeds as you are trying to get as much of the pulp separated from the seed as possible. Some people do enjoy the seeds as well but we enjoy this drink best without.
- If your fruit is strong and tart then you would want to sweeten to your liking. My family enjoys this juice a bit stronger so we add 1/3 cup of unfiltered raw honey
- and two tablespoons of pure vanilla extract.
- Add ice and you can garnish this with fresh mint leaves
- Enjoy!
