Mango Passion Fruit Mint Water: Easy Recipe

Mango passion fruit mint water is a chilled fruit-and-herb infusion that takes about 2 hours 10 minutes to prepare and makes about 4 cups.

What is mango passion fruit mint water?

Mango passion fruit mint water combines ripe mango, tart passion fruit pulp and fresh mint with drinking water. The ingredients steep in the refrigerator, gently flavoring the water without blending the fruit into it.

The result is lighter than a smoothie or juice, with a tropical flavor and a fresh herbal finish. For more combinations, browse these tropical fruit infused water recipes.

What ingredients and ratio do you need?

This recipe uses about 155 g of fruit and 5 g of mint for roughly 1 liter of water. It makes approximately four 1-cup servings; the amount can vary slightly depending on how much water stays with the fruit when you strain it.

Water: 950 ml (4 cups)
Ripe mango: 125 g (about 3/4 cup), peeled and diced
Passion fruit pulp: 30 g (about 2 tablespoons, or 1/8 cup), scooped from the fruit
Fresh mint: 5 g (about 1/4 cup loosely packed, or 8–12 leaves)

Choose a ripe mango for a mellow, sweet aroma. Use the pulp and seeds inside the passion fruit, not the outer rind; a small strainer can catch the seeds later if you prefer.

A covered pitcher or jar large enough to hold the water and fruit is helpful. Start with clean equipment and safe drinking water.

How do you make mango passion fruit mint water?

Hands-on time: about 10 minutes. Refrigerator steep: 2 hours. Yield: about 4 cups.

Wash the mango, passion fruit and mint under running water. Peel and dice the mango, then cut open the passion fruit and scoop out the pulp.
Place the diced mango and passion fruit pulp in a clean pitcher. Lightly press the mint leaves between your fingers and add them to the pitcher.
Pour in the water and stir gently. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Taste the water. For a stronger infusion, return it to the refrigerator for up to 4 hours total.
Strain into glasses if you prefer a clearer drink, or leave the fruit in the pitcher when serving. Serve chilled.

Why do mango, passion fruit and mint pair well?

Mango gives the infusion a soft, rounded fruit flavor, while passion fruit adds a tangy edge. See mango infused water for a simpler way to enjoy the same mellow base.

The pulp gives this recipe more texture than sliced fruit alone, and its seeds are easy to strain out. For a more tart-centered pitcher, explore passion fruit infused water.

Mint adds a cool herbal note that balances the fruit without requiring sweetener. If you prefer that note on its own, see mint water.

The main benefit of this drink is that it can make water more appealing to drink. Mango and passion fruit contain nutrients, but the amount that transfers into steeped water is unknown; eating the fruit or adding more pulp also adds its calories. The liver and kidneys do most of the body's detoxification, while the lungs and gut help eliminate waste.

How should you store it?

Keep mango passion fruit mint water covered and refrigerated. Drink it within 24 hours for the best flavor, and discard any remaining drink after 2 days.

Refrigerate the pitcher promptly after serving, and do not leave it at room temperature for more than 2 hours. Passion fruit pulp can make the drink cloudy from the start, but discard it sooner if you notice new cloudiness, slime or an unusual sour smell.

What variations can you try?

Make it more mango-forward

Use a little more diced mango and a little less passion fruit pulp, keeping the total fruit amount similar. This gives the water a softer flavor with less tartness.

Adjust the mint

Use fewer mint leaves for a subtler herbal note, or use the full amount for a fresher finish. Lightly pressing the leaves helps release their aroma without shredding them throughout the pitcher.

Change the texture

Strain the finished infusion for a lighter drink, or leave the pulp and fruit in for a fruitier pitcher. If serving it unstrained, stir gently before pouring because the pulp can settle.
