Granadilla

Granadillas, botanically classified as Passiflora ligularis, are fruits of a climbing vine belonging to the Passifloraceae family. The sweet and tangy, seedy fruits are native to Central and South America and have become widely naturalized in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Granadilla is known by many names and spellings, including Sugar fruit, Sweet Granadilla, Granadia, Granadilla, and Granada China. The yellow-skin fruits are not as well-known as the purple passionfruit, but they are increasing in popularity, especially throughout Central America, for their mild nature.


Granadillas are small to medium-sized fruits with an elongated, oblong to oval form and a hollow, lightweight sensation. They typically measure 6 to 8 centimeters in length and 3 to 5 centimeters in diameter. Smooth, firm, and thick, the rind is originally green when young but turns orange-yellow as it ages. It is significant to note that when mature, the rind will remain smooth and won't wrinkle, unlike purple passionfruit. Granadillas have a flavor that is fruity, vibrant, sweet, and tangy with notes of the tropics and flowers. The seeds also bring up nutty undertones. Peru is one of the countries that produce many Granadillas globally. This fruit is used commonly in making juices, drinks, and salads.
