Ingredients
Scale
Gather around the kitchen and let’s create something magical. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 cups fresh pineapple juice
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup passion fruit pulp
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (feel free to adjust to taste)
- Ice cubes
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
If you can’t find passion fruit, mango pulp can be a delightful substitute. And if you’re like me and love a touch of cinnamon in everything, a small pinch can add an unexpected warmth to this tropical delight.
Instructions
Let’s craft this refreshing treat:
- In a large pitcher, combine the pineapple juice, coconut water, lime juice, and passion fruit pulp. Stir well to incorporate all the flavors.
- Add honey or agave syrup, starting with two tablespoons. Stir and taste, adding more if you prefer a sweeter drink. My mum always said to taste as you go—it’s the secret to a perfect recipe.
- Fill glasses with ice cubes. Pour the tropical mixture over the ice, filling each glass about three-quarters full.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves for that extra burst of freshness. If you’re feeling adventurous, a slice of lime on the rim adds a lovely touch.
As you sip, close your eyes and imagine the warm Brazilian sun and the sound of samba in the distance. It’s a little escape, right from your kitchen.
