If the banana is the "only fruit of love," the passion fruit is the fruit of passion. And we don't say this with such conviction simply because, in certain cultures, it's believed that eating a passion fruit will make you fall in love with the first person you meet. But rather because this succulent fruit, which belongs to the Passiflora genus, comes from the passion flower plant.<\/span><\/p>\n

With a simultaneously sweet and sour flavor and an unmistakable aroma, passion fruit is a fruit packed with vitamins and health benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n

The purple passion fruit is from New Zealand, and the yellow variety is from Hawaii. Both have a similar flavor, but the purple variety tends to be less acidic and juicier than the yellow.<\/span><\/p>\n
