Ingredients

1 cup passionfruit pulp fresh or frozen
1 bottle brut champagne chilled
2 tablespoons simple syrup
Fresh passionfruit seeds for garnish
Ice cubes for shaking

Instructions

Add passionfruit pulp and simple syrup to a cocktail shaker.
Fill the shaker with ice and shake for 15 seconds.

Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into champagne flutes, filling each glass about 1/3 full.
Top each glass slowly with chilled champagne.
Stir gently with a small spoon to combine.

Garnish with fresh passionfruit seeds.

Notes

The cocktail works best with brut champagne since the passionfruit adds natural sweetness.

Store any leftover passionfruit pulp in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

For a non-alcoholic version, replace champagne with sparkling water or ginger ale.

Make sure all ingredients are well-chilled before mixing for the best results.

Double strain the passionfruit pulp if you prefer a smoother texture without seeds.

Substitute

No passion fruit? No problem. You can replace fresh passion fruit juice with store-bought passion fruit nectar or puree. These options work just as well in this cocktail.

For a non-alcoholic version, swap the champagne with sparkling white grape juice or ginger ale. The bubbly texture creates a similar effect.

Some stores sell passion fruit syrup. If you’re using syrup, mix 1 part syrup with 2 parts water before adding it to the recipe. This keeps the drink from becoming too sweet.

Prosecco or other sparkling wines make great alternatives to champagne. They cost less and taste similar in this mixed drink.

You can also swap fresh passion fruit pulp with frozen pulp. Let it thaw completely before using, and strain out the seeds if desired.

Pro tip: If you’re using canned passion fruit juice, check the sugar content. Reduce any added sugar in the recipe to keep the drink balanced.
