Cut the passion fruits in half and scoop the passion fruit seeds and pulp into the tea.
Pour the passion fruit iced tea into glasses filled with ice cubes.
Tips and Tricks
- You can make the tea ahead and chill it in a pitcher in the refrigerator. Add the passion fruit before serving so it’s nice and fresh.
- And about the passion fruit – if you can’t find fresh fruit look for passion fruit puree or pulp. Goya makes it (sure there are other brands, too) just thaw it first in the refrigerator.
- Instead of granulated sugar, you can use simple syrup which is just equal parts sugar and water simmered until the sugar melts. Or you can try flavored syrups like vanilla or sweeten your drink with honey.
- If you’re really feeling fancy garnish your ice tea drinks with fresh mint leaves.
Ready to sip on some iced passion fruit tea? It’s such an easy recipe and a great way to put a spin on a plain old glass of iced tea. Enjoy!
