Frequently Asked Questions
Is a passionfruit mojito mocktail alcohol free?
Yes. This version swaps the usual rum for sparkling water, so it is completely alcohol free. That makes it a great option for designated drivers, kids and anyone who wants a refreshing drink without the alcohol.
Can I make it without fresh passionfruit?
You can. If fresh passionfruit is out of season, a passionfruit syrup carries the flavour on its own. Fresh pulp adds extra texture and aroma, but the drink still works well with syrup alone.
How do I muddle mint without making the drink bitter?
Muddle gently, just enough to release the aroma from the leaves. Pressing too hard breaks them down and can make the drink taste bitter, so a light touch keeps the flavour fresh and clean.
Can I adjust how sweet or tangy it is?
Absolutely. Add a little more syrup for a sweeter drink or extra lime juice for more zing. Tasting as you go lets you balance it exactly to your liking.
Can I turn this into a cocktail?
Yes. A splash of white rum turns this mocktail into a classic passionfruit mojito. The rest of the recipe stays the same, so you can easily make both versions for a mixed group.
