Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh passion fruit pulp
- 1 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Ice cubes (as needed)
- Pinch of salt
If you can’t find fresh passion fruit, feel free to use frozen pulp, which is often available in the freezer section of your local market. And for those who are lactose intolerant, substitute the evaporated milk with a plant-based milk of your choice — coconut milk adds a delightful twist that pairs beautifully with the tropical flavors.
Instructions
- Start by scooping the passion fruit pulp into a blender. This is where the magic begins, much like folding flour into eggs in the early morning light.
- Add the fresh orange juice, evaporated milk, and sugar to the blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and the sugar has dissolved completely.
- Pour in the vanilla extract and add a pinch of salt. Blend for another 30 seconds. This step reminds me of the little touches my mum always said made all the difference.
- Once blended, taste the mixture. Adjust sweetness if necessary — remember, it should be a balanced symphony of flavors.
- Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the drink over the ice. Give it a gentle stir to chill it through, much like waiting for a freshly baked pie to cool just enough to cut the first slice.
