Passion Fruit Punch image

I had a bunch of fresh passion fruits that I processed with some white rum and Truvia to make "passion fruit-ade" on a camping trip. The rum acted as a preservative - not intended to get drunk. When I got home, I still had a lot left over which stayed in the refrigerator for weeks. So, today, I wanted to use it up. I wanted to...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 c fresh passion fruit pulp with seeds, blended in a blender
3 c ginger beer (not ginger ale, but the spicier ginger beer)
3 c bitter lemon soda
1 1/2 c white rum (optional)
16 dash(es) angostura bitters
truvia or simple syrup to taste.

Steps:

  • 1. Blend passion fruit pulp in a blender or with an immersion blender. Add a little water if necessary - just enough to get it to blend. If you're adding the rum, use this instead of water to help it blend.
  • 2. Strain out the crushed seeds if you want to do so. I don't.
  • 3. Mix it all together in a punch bowl with ice.
  • 4. Taste for sweetness and adjust as needed. Some ginger beers are WAAAY too sweet for my taste. Others are balanced. Stir gently if you add a sweetener so not to disturb the carbonation too much.

Time 35m

Yield Cuts into 16 squares

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 passion fruits , flesh scooped out
250ml passion fruit juice from a carton
4 sheets gelatine
2 x 400g cans sweetened condensed milk
500ml double cream , loosely whipped
250g digestive biscuit
100g butter , melted
2 mangoes
juice 1 lime
2 tbsp golden caster sugar
2 passion fruits , flesh scooped out and chopped

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose ripe passion fruits: Look for passion fruits that are wrinkled and heavy for their size. These fruits will be sweeter and more flavorful.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice will give your poncha a bright, citrusy flavor. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Use a good quality rum: The rum is the main ingredient in poncha, so it's important to use a good quality rum. Look for a rum that is smooth and flavorful.
  • Don't overmix the poncha: Overmixing the poncha will make it cloudy. Stir the ingredients together gently until they are well combined.
  • Serve the poncha immediately: Poncha is best served immediately after it is made. The longer it sits, the more the flavors will meld together and the less refreshing it will be.

Conclusion:

Poncha is a refreshing and flavorful cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. Whether you like your poncha sweet, sour, or somewhere in between, there's a recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cocktail, give poncha a try. You won't be disappointed.
