You know those funny looking orbs you got in your order this week? Those are passion fruit and according to Farmer Steve they are in their second, yet smaller crop right now. I don't know how long they will be around, but if you have no other ideas try this soda.
After a fellow co-oper praised the soda she came up with to use her passion fruit, I decided to give it a try. Wow, was she right, it is delicious! It is quite simple, great for lunch time, a party, or a sunny day. Thanks Kendra for the great idea!

Cut the tangerines in half. Squeeze one tangerine into each glass. Add one tbs simple syrup to each glass. Divide juice from passion fruit between the two glasses. Add ice and bubbly water to fill an 8-oz glass. Give it a swizzle and enjoy!
