Passionfruit Marmalade is a tropical variation of the classic orange marmalade. It's a tasty and versatile addition to your breakfast table. With a perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors, it will add a touch of sunshine to your morning toast. The recipe is not complicated but takes time to simmer to achieve the desired thickness and texture. It's a guaranteed success for anyone trying it out for the first time or for those who want to try something new with their marmalade. You can store it in sterilized jars for up to six months, so make sure to prepare plenty to enjoy over time.

Instructions

1.	Use a sharp knife to cut the grapefruit and orange into thin slices.
2.	Place the sliced fruit in a large pot, along with the passion fruit pulp and juice and the juice of the lemons.
3.	Add enough water to cover the fruit, then bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and allow the mixture to simmer for about an hour, or until the fruit is soft.
4.	Remove the pot from the heat and use a potato masher to mash the fruit and release any remaining juice.
5.	Strain the fruit mixture through a sieve or cheesecloth, and return the liquid to the pot.
6.	Add the sugar to the liquid, stirring until it dissolves and the mixture becomes smooth.
7.	Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and allow it to simmer for about an hour, or until the desired thickness is achieved and the mixture reaches 105°C on a sugar thermometer.
8.	Remove from heat, and let the marmalade sit for 20 minutes in the pot, then stir the mixture one last time before transferring to sterilized jars.
