Passion fruit is a tart and seedy fruit with an intense and distinct flavor. There is nothing in the world that tastes like passion fruit and it is so delicious. Because it is so tart, it is necessary to sweeten the fruit with cane sugar or simple syrup. Sweetening will not affect the taste of the fruit but simply makes it more palatable. My grandma would use passion fruit when she could find it, in our drinks on Sundays. She would mix passion fruit with cherries, june plums or even pineapples to make fruity drinks that accompanied our Sunday dinners. So, you must try my new and very delicious Passion fruit margaritas recipe.
