Passionfruit is a tropical fruit with a tough purple or yellow rind and a soft, jelly-like center filled with a tangy pulp that contains edible black seeds. It has a bold, sweet-tart flavor that’s often described as a mix of citrus fruits. You can often find it already frozen at your supermarket.

Ingredient Breakdown

Here’s what makes this smoothie taste like vacation:

  • Passionfruit: This is the star of the show! Tangy, slightly sweet, and full of tropical flair.
  • Mango – Adds natural sweetness and creamy texture.
  • Frozen strawberries – Brings bright berry flavor and a bit of tartness.
  • Greek yogurt – For creaminess, a protein boost, and that perfect smoothie body.
  • Milk – Thins everything out to the right consistency—use dairy or any milk alternative.
  • Optional sweetener – If your fruit isn’t super ripe, you can add a little honey or maple syrup to taste.
