Passionfruit Spritzer

Ingredients

• ¼ cups Granulated Sugar
• ¼ cups Water
• ¾ cups Passionfruit Juice (See Note If Using Fresh Passionfruit)
• 2 cans Seltzer Or Sparkling Water, 12 Ounce Cans

Preparation Instructions

Make a simple syrup by combining the sugar and water in a small pan over medium-high heat. Heat just until the sugar dissolves completely. Then remove pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.

Divide the passionfruit juice, sparkling water, and simple syrup between 4 glasses. Top with ice and serve.

Note: If using fresh passionfruit, cut the fruit in half and scoop the seeds and pulp into a fine mesh sieve placed over a bowl. Using a wooden spoon or soft spatula, push the pulp against the sieve to release the juice into the bowl below. I needed 3 fresh passionfruit to yield 3/4 cup juice.
