Saffron Brook Recipe Q&As

→ Can I make this drink ahead of time?

Yes, you can mix the juices and coconut milk up to 24 hours in advance. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and give it a good stir or shake before serving over fresh ice.

→ What if I can't find passionfruit juice?

You can substitute with additional pineapple juice or orange juice. Passionfruit nectar works well too, though it may be slightly sweeter. Adjust the simple syrup accordingly to maintain balance.

→ Can I use fresh fruit instead of juice?

Absolutely! Blend fresh guava and passionfruit pulp with a little water, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve. This will give you a fresher, more intense flavor, though the texture may be slightly thicker.

→ How can I make this into a slushy?

Simply combine all ingredients with 2 cups of ice in a blender and blend until smooth and slushy. You may need to add a bit more ice to reach your desired consistency.

→ Is there a way to make it lower in calories?

Use light coconut milk or swap it for unsweetened almond milk. You can also reduce or omit the simple syrup, especially if your fruit juices are already sweet. Using fresh squeezed juice without added sugar helps too.

→ Can I make this for a crowd?

Definitely! This recipe scales easily. For a party, multiply the ingredients and mix in a large beverage dispenser. Keep it chilled and let guests serve themselves over ice. You can pre-garnish or offer garnishes on the side.
