Have you guys made your own? or which PF syrups do you think are the best?

Ive got TV's, and I really like it, despite talk about it being an alterered more artificial recipe. (very true, as there are lots of ingredients on the label... not just passion fruit, sugar, and water)

But regardless, it tastes good and makes a good hurricane.

Can you make any fruit syrop simply by using water, juice and sugar? What proportions are typically used? do you only heat it up to dissolve the sugar, or do you thicken and reduce the mixture also?

[Tiare]

Here is a basic recipe:

1 cup fruit
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
Cook fruit with sugar and water until thick. Smash fruit while cooking.

For a thin syrup - press through strainer. For a thicker syrup, process cooked syrup in a food processor.

Store in refrigerator.

You can use Berries, cherries, pineapple, mango, papaya, bananas etc

I will take note of your recipe Tiare. Thanks for posting it.

Now what would your recommendation be if you only had pure juice, and the actual fruit was not available. Likely it would be less than the 1 cup, wouldnt it?

I would maybe use less yes, and i would make more of a reductiion to get that nice thick syrupy yum..
