What is passion fruit pear water?

Passion fruit pear water combines sliced pear, passion fruit pulp and drinking water in a chilled pitcher. The passion fruit adds a fragrant, tart note, while the pear softens it with a milder fruit flavor.

Unlike a blended fruit drink, this infusion doesn’t require a blender or added sweetener. You can serve it with the fruit and seeds in the glass or strain them out. Find more ideas in these tropical fruit infused water recipes.

What ingredients and ratio do you need?

For about 4 cups of water, start with roughly 150 g of prepared fruit. This recipe uses more pear than passion fruit by weight, giving the infusion a balance of mellow and tangy flavors.

• Water: 950 mL (about 4 cups), cold
• Pear: 100 g (about 2/3 cup), thinly sliced, with the core removed
• Passion fruit: 50 g (about 1/4 cup) pulp, including the edible seeds

Measure the pear after removing the core and the passion fruit after scooping out the pulp. The amount of pulp in individual passion fruits varies, so use the measured amount rather than relying on a particular number of fruits.

Choose a ripe pear that is still firm enough to slice. Use a pitcher large enough to hold both the water and the fruit, with room to stir.

How do you make passion fruit pear water?

Allow about 10 minutes for preparation, followed by at least 2 hours in the refrigerator. The yield is about 4 cups of infused water; the amount in the pitcher may vary depending on whether you serve or strain the fruit.

1. Wash the pear and the outside of the passion fruit under running water. Use clean hands, a clean knife and a clean pitcher.
2. Slice the pear thinly, removing the core and seeds. Leave the washed peel on for color, or peel the pear if you prefer.
3. Cut the passion fruit open and scoop the pulp and seeds into a measuring cup. Discard the outer skin.
4. Add the pear and passion fruit pulp to the pitcher, then pour in the cold water. Stir gently to distribute the pulp.
5. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for 2–4 hours. Taste after 2 hours; leave it longer within that range if you want a stronger fruit flavor.
6. Serve the water chilled, with the fruit and seeds, or strain it through a fine sieve first. Avoid pressing the fruit if you prefer a lighter infusion.

Why do passion fruit and pear pair well?

Passion fruit has a distinctive tart, tropical aroma. Pear is gentler and naturally sweet, so it rounds out the sharper flavor without needing added sugar.

The drink provides water for hydration. Both fruits contain fiber, but the amount you get depends on how much fruit and pulp you consume; a glass of strained water won’t provide the same fiber as eating the whole fruit.

Hydration supports normal body functions, including those of the liver and kidneys, which do most of the body’s detoxification. The lungs and gut also help eliminate waste; passion fruit pear water does not flush toxins from the body.

How should you store passion fruit pear water?

Keep the pitcher covered and refrigerated while it steeps and after serving. For the best flavor, drink the infusion within 24 hours of making it. Discard any remaining water after 2 days, or sooner if it becomes unexpectedly cloudy, slimy or sour-smelling.

Some cloudiness from passion fruit pulp is normal; an unexpected change during storage is a reason to discard the drink. Return the pitcher to the refrigerator promptly after pouring, and don’t leave it at room temperature for more than a few hours.

How can you vary passion fruit pear water?

Make it more pear-forward

Use less passion fruit pulp for a softer, less tart drink. Keep the sliced pear in the pitcher during the refrigerated steep so its delicate flavor has time to develop.

Give it a brighter flavor

Add a little more passion fruit pulp if you enjoy its tang. The extra pulp can make the water cloudier and add more fruit solids to each glass.

Serve it clear or with fruit

Strain the infusion after chilling for a smoother drink, or leave the pulp and pear slices in for a more fruit-filled glass. If you serve the fruit, use a spoon to enjoy it alongside the water.
