What is raspberry passion fruit ginger water?

Raspberry passion fruit ginger water is plain water infused with raspberries, passion fruit pulp and fresh ginger. The fruit gives it a tart, fragrant taste, while the ginger adds a gentle warmth without requiring any cooking.

It is one of many berry infused water recipes you can make in a covered pitcher. Serve it strained for a lighter drink or leave the pulp in for more texture.

What ingredients and ratio do you need?

For about 4 servings, use:

Water: 950 mL (4 cups), cold
Raspberries: 125 g (about 1 cup), fresh
Passion fruit pulp: 30 g (about 1/8 cup or 2 tablespoons), including the seeds
Fresh ginger: 10 g (about 1/8 cup or 2 tablespoons thinly sliced)

The measurements are approximate. The fruit-to-water ratio gives the infusion a noticeable flavor without making it as thick as juice. Use a pitcher large enough to hold the water and fruit with room to stir.

Choose ripe, sound fruit and clean water. The pulp and seeds go into the pitcher; discard the passion fruit rind after scooping out the center.

How do you make raspberry passion fruit ginger water?

Prep time: 10 minutes
Refrigerated steep: 2–4 hours
Yield: About 4 cups, or 4 servings

Wash the raspberries, the outside of the passion fruit and the ginger under running water.
Cut the passion fruit open and scoop out 30 g (about 1/8 cup) of pulp and seeds. Thinly slice the ginger.
Place the raspberries, passion fruit pulp and ginger in a clean pitcher. Leave the raspberries whole for a clearer infusion, or gently press a few for a fruitier taste.
Pour in the cold water and stir gently to distribute the ingredients.
Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for 2–4 hours. Taste after 2 hours; leave it longer if you prefer a stronger flavor.
Strain the infusion if desired, then pour it into glasses. Alternatively, serve it with the fruit and seeds still in the water.

Pressing the raspberries or leaving the passion fruit pulp in the glass makes the drink cloudier. For a clearer result, keep the berries whole and pour the finished infusion through a fine-mesh strainer.

Why do raspberry, passion fruit and ginger work together?

Raspberries contribute a soft berry flavor and tartness, much as they do in raspberry infused water. Passion fruit adds a more aromatic, tangy note; its seeds and pulp also give passion fruit infused water texture. Fresh ginger rounds out the fruit with the mild spice familiar from ginger water.

The main benefit of this drink is hydration. If you eat the fruit and pulp rather than straining them out, you also consume some of their fiber and nutrients; the amount transferred into the water alone is uncertain.

This infusion does not cleanse the body. The liver and kidneys do most of the body's detoxification, while the lungs and gut also help eliminate waste; sweat removes only trace amounts.

How should you store it?

Keep raspberry passion fruit ginger water covered in the refrigerator and drink it within 24 hours for the best flavor. Discard it after 2–3 days, or sooner if it becomes cloudy, slimy or sour-smelling.

Passion fruit pulp can make the drink cloudy from the start, especially if you press the berries. Straining the pulp makes the liquid easier to inspect. Do not leave the pitcher at room temperature for more than a few hours.

How can you vary the recipe?

For a milder ginger flavor, use fewer slices; for a stronger one, keep the full amount and steep toward the longer end of the 2–4-hour range. Strain out the ginger once the flavor is where you want it.

For more fruit texture, leave the passion fruit seeds and raspberries in each glass. For a lighter, clearer drink, keep the fruit whole where possible and strain before serving. Avoid any ingredient you are allergic to.
