PURPLE PASSION FRUIT

Taste the tangy (and slightly weird) delight of this fruit’s other-wordly, gooey goodness. Passion Fruit, also known as Maracuya, originated in subtropical South America, but is now common in most tropical parts of the world. The Purple Passion Fruit has a jelly-like pulp with edible seeds and a hard, purple outside shell. With a sour, yet unrivaled tropical sweetness, this fruit is packed with healthy vitamins and minerals. Eat with a spoon, strain or juice for an instant tropical experience.

 

The Enjoyment

How do you eat Passion Fruit?

Allow nature to work its magic! Let your Passion Fruit get a little ugly and wrinkly before enjoying. This is a natural part of the ripening process.

Ready for your adventure? Slice, or use your thumb to crack one open. Pull apart to enjoy the gooey goodness inside. Indulge by the spoonful or strain the pulpy juice to make a (tropical) farm to table juice or cocktail.

How to Store

How To Keep Passion Fruit Fresh

The Countertop:
Passion fruit can be stored on your countertop to ripen. You’ll know they’re ripe when the passion fruit’s skin begins to get slightly wrinkled or dimpled.

Refrigerated:
Once ripened, refrigerate passion fruits to keep them fresh for up to two weeks.

Frozen:
Freezing passion fruit is a great option if you want to keep these tropical fruits fresher, longer. It’s best to freeze passion fruit pulp, not the whole fruit. To freeze, first, scoop the passion fruit pulp from its peel and place it into a freezer-safe container.
