What is Passionfruit?

Passionfruit (Passiflora edulis) is a tropical vine fruit known for its wrinkled purple or golden skin and vibrant, jelly-like pulp filled with edible black seeds. Inside, it delivers an intense sweet-tart flavour, with floral notes often compared to guava, citrus, and pineapple.

Native to South America, particularly Brazil, passionfruit is now cultivated worldwide, including parts of Africa, Asia, and Australia. Its name is inspired by the “Passion Flower,” celebrated for its striking petals and symbolic history. In many cultures, passionfruit is enjoyed fresh, juiced, or used to elevate desserts and cocktails.
