👨🍳 Instrucciones
- 1
Prepare the passion fruit: Cut the passion fruits in half. Using a spoon, scoop out the pulp (seeds and juice) into a blender. Discard the rinds.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Blend the ingredients: Add the cold water and about 1/4 cup of granulated sugar to the blender with the passion fruit pulp. Blend on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the seeds are broken down and the mixture is well combined. The seeds will become very fine.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 3
Strain the juice: Place a fine-mesh sieve over a large bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended mixture through the sieve, pressing down on the solids with the back of a spoon to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the remaining pulp and seeds in the sieve.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Adjust sweetness and consistency: Taste the strained juice. If it's too tart, gradually add more sugar, stirring well after each addition, until it reaches your desired sweetness. If you prefer a thinner juice, you can add a little more cold water, a quarter cup at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. Stir thoroughly.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 5
Chill and serve: Pour the jugo de maracuyá into glasses. Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for a colder, more refreshing drink. Serve over ice cubes if desired.
⏱️ 1 minute (plus chilling time)
