Add Bold, Tropical Flavor to Your Next Brew
Also known as the taxo, banana poka, or banana passion fruit, the curuba is the Colombian cousin of the passion fruit that has only been more recently available in the US. It has an oblong-shaped orange-yellow exterior, containing a vibrant orange tropical fruit pulp. While the interior does have a resemblance to passion fruit, besides being slightly sour, it tastes almost nothing like it. It’s fruity, yet earthy.
In fact, when people use this exotic fruit for the first time, many try it with milk and a splash of honey. It tastes very much like a tart peach with a slightly creamy hint of banana and pairs well with fatty, creamy, or milky bases.
