Passion Fruit Syrup
Passion fruit syrup is made by combining passion fruit pulp or juice with sugar, capturing the fruit's distinctive tart, musky-sweet, tropical flavour in a pourable form. It offers a non-alcoholic way to add the fruit's character to a drink. It pairs naturally with other tropical ingredients.
