Passion Fruit Cooler

 Passion Fruit Cooler

Description:

The Passion Fruit Cooler is a vibrant, exotic, and halal-friendly tropical drink that bursts with sweet and tangy flavor. Made from the refreshing juice of ripe passion fruits, balanced with a hint of lemon and a touch of sweetness, this cooler is a perfect thirst-quencher on warm days. Its bright golden color and zesty aroma bring a taste of the tropics right to your glass — light, energizing, and beautifully refreshing. Ideal for summer gatherings, family events, or Ramadan iftars.

Ingredients:

• 3–4 fresh passion fruits (or ½ cup passion fruit pulp)

• 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

• 1–2 tsp honey or sugar syrup (adjust to taste)

• 1 cup cold water or sparkling water

• Ice cubes (as needed)

• Mint leaves and lemon slice (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Scoop out the pulp from the passion fruits into a bowl. If you prefer a smoother drink, you can strain it to remove some of the seeds — though many enjoy keeping them for a bit of crunch.

2. In a glass or shaker, mix the passion fruit pulp, lemon juice, and honey (or sugar syrup) until well combined.

3. Add cold water or sparkling water, depending on whether you want a still or fizzy drink.

4. Fill a tall glass with ice cubes and pour in the mixture.

5. Stir gently and garnish with a mint leaf and a slice of lemon for a fresh, tropical finish.

Serving Suggestion:
Serve immediately while chilled. The Passion Fruit Cooler pairs perfectly with light meals, seafood, or fruit desserts. It’s also an excellent non-alcoholic party drink — colorful, refreshing, and visually appealing.

Optional Variations:

• Mix in a few orange juice drops for added sweetness.

• Add a pinch of salt for a tangy-salty twist.

• Blend with ice for a frozen cooler texture.
