Passion Fruit (Passiflora edulis)- Its native to South America. The fruit is purple when its ripe. The insides are usually eaten raw. The juice can be made in to a drink or to flavor ice-cream. Picture is ripe.

Sea Grape (Coccoloba uvifera)- Historians think that this was the first fruit Columbus saw when he reached the Caribbean in the fifteenth century. The bunches of grapes don't ripen evenly. They are hard not like normal grapes and very sour (I like them anyways.) They have allot of pectin in them so they are good for jelly and jelly preserves. Some people use them for soup. Picture is not ripe when the fruit is ripe its purple.
...
Soursop (Annona muricata)- The tree grows fast, it has shiny leaves, and has yellow-green flowers. As you can see from my picture the fruit is green and has spikes. the inside of the fruit is whitish-pink and can be made into a drink. Picture is ripe.
