A simple and refreshing sparkling passion fruit mocktail with lime and mint, perfect for summer and quick to prepare. This bubbly drink combines tangy passion fruit, zesty lime, and aromatic mint for a tropical, fuss-free treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 45 large fresh passion fruits (about 1/2 cup or 120 ml pulp)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lime juice from 1 large lime
  • 1012 fresh mint leaves, gently muddled
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar or simple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) chilled sparkling water
  • Ice cubes, enough to fill the glass
  • Optional: extra lime slices and mint sprigs for garnish
  • Optional: seedless cucumber slices for a subtle cooling note

Instructions

  1. Cut the passion fruits in half and scoop out the pulp into a small bowl (about 1/2 cup or 120 ml). Set aside.
  2. Juice the lime using a juicer or reamer to extract about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of fresh lime juice. Remove seeds.
  3. Place 10-12 fresh mint leaves in the bottom of a mixing glass or pitcher. Gently muddle the leaves with a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon to release their aroma without pulverizing.
  4. Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of sugar or simple syrup with the muddled mint. Adjust sweetness to taste.
  5. Pour the passion fruit pulp and lime juice into the mixing glass with the mint and sweetener. Stir gently to combine.
  6. Fill a serving glass with ice cubes to chill the drink.
  7. Slowly add 1 cup (240 ml) of chilled sparkling water to the mixture. Stir gently to mix without losing the bubbles.
  8. Garnish with a lime slice and a sprig of mint on top and serve immediately.

Notes

For a smoother texture, strain the passion fruit pulp before mixing to remove seeds. Avoid over-muddling mint to prevent bitterness. Keep sparkling water chilled and add it last, stirring gently to preserve bubbles. Use large ice cubes to keep the drink crisp longer. Prepare just before serving for best freshness and fizz.
