Bottling the magic of passionfruit pulp with your own passionfruit cordial means you can enjoy that magic tang with a little added fizz!
Mixed with soda water, my little family is going big-time crazy about Nana Ling's passionfruit cordial.
Why make it when you can buy it?
I know, I know, it's just so easy to pick up a bottle of passionfruit soft drink these days.
Why bother making your own?
Well, I have 5 reasons to make your own:
- It's super simple and quick.
- If you have a passionfruit vine that's producing more than you need it's a great way to use up 12 passionfruit at once.
- You can control your sugar intake by using less cordial when mixing with soda water.
- You know exactly what's in your cordial.
- The flavour. The FLAVOUR. Don't even try to compare it with store-bought stuff.
Have I managed to convince you yet?
Go on, give it a go!
