Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 ml Passionfruit pulp (fresh or canned)
- 200 grams Sugar
- 250 ml Water
- 50 ml Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the passionfruit pulp, sugar, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently until the sugar dissolves completely. Avoid boiling at this stage.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice.
Let the cordial cool to room temperature, then strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds and any pulp, if desired.
Pour the strained cordial into a clean, sterilized glass bottle or jar and seal tightly.
Store the passionfruit cordial in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
To serve, mix 2-3 tablespoons of cordial with sparkling water or still water, adjusting to taste. Enjoy as a refreshing beverage or use it as a cocktail mixer!
