Citrus and passion fruit make a punchy pairing. A quick sprinkling of sugar draws out their natural juices for a foolproof maceration. Use whichever variety of citrus you like–the more colourful the better.—Michelle Lucas Larving
Ingredients
3 mixed oranges, such as blood, Cara Cara and navel
2 mixed grapefruit, such as red and yellow
1 tbsp granulated sugar
4 ripe passion fruit, halved
1/4 toasted coconut flakes
2 tbsp chopped fresh mint (optional)
Instructions
Slice a small piece off top and bottom of each orange and grapefruit. Cut off and discard remaining peel, including all white pith, so segments are showing. Slice citrus into 1⁄4-in.-thick rounds, discarding any seeds. Arrange on a large platter.
Sprinkle sugar evenly over citrus. Scoop pulp from 3 passion fruit and spoon overtop. Sprinkle with coconut and mint, if desired. Arrange remaining passion fruit halves on platter for garnish.
