passion fruit

Tangy purple pod

Passion fruit is a tropical fruit with a tough purple or yellow rind and soft, seed-filled pulp inside.

The flavor is intensely sweet-tart and aromatic, popular in juices, desserts, and cocktails: The pavlova was topped with fresh passion fruit.

The name comes from the passion flower vine, whose blossoms supposedly symbolize the Crucifixion.
