Its scientific name is Passiflora Edulis and is native to South America, but very adaptable to any warm climate that is free of frost, and very easy to grow, in my area it grows very well and produces very abundantly.

Its flavor is very peculiar, sour and sweet at the same time, ideal to replenish strength after a hard day's work. Most of the fruit is water and a large amount of seeds. The most important thing about this tropical fruit is its high content of vitamins and minerals, it has more vitamin C than an orange and a lot of vitamin B3 and vitamin B2, as well as potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium and phosphorus.

The easiest way to consume it is to cut it in half and eat it with a spoon as if it were a dessert, although it can also be used to make a delicious sorbet that I personally like the most.

La forma más fácil de consumirla es cortarla por la mitad y cómetela con una cuchara como si fuera un postre, aunque también se puede utilizan para hacer un exquisito sorbete que a mí personalmente es como más me gusta.
