Get ready to level up your usual lemonade. This passion fruit lemonade recipe is the perfect summer drink. Delicious, easy to make and so refreshing!
If you’re lucky enough to get your hands on fresh passion fruit, making a passion fruit syrup or lemonade with them is a great way to preserve the beautifully aromatic fruit.

- Sugar.
- Water.

Ingredients
- 2 cups passionfruit pulp I used fresh passionfruit but frozen or canned can also be used (I used 12 medium-sized passion fruit)
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup sugar add more if you want it sweeter
- 4 cups water
- ice to serve
Instructions
- Halve the passion fruit and scoop the seeds and pulp into a small saucepan.
- Stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice, sugar and water then bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Remove from the heat.
- Pass the lemonade through a fine mesh sieve to remove the seeds. I like adding a few spoonfuls of seeds back to the lemonade for aesthetic purposes but this is optional.
- Allow to cool then transfer to a jug, pitcher or fridge-safe containers and serve over ice.
- For a delicious cocktail, add a shot of vodka, gin, tequila or rum to a glass over ice then top with the passion fruit lemonade and finish with a splash of sparkling water. Add garnishes like lemon slices and fresh mint then serve.
