pearberry Framboire

Explanation:
I would not translate if it were the name of a company like Apple or Blackberry, but here it is different it is a fictional fruit.

pas un nom de compagnie qui ne se traduirait pas en effet mais un nom de fruit inventé qui rappellerait le melange des parfums et fruits en question

si c'est pour un jus de fruit - framboire peut etre framboise ou fraise et poire et est "à boire"
