Default Identify a fruit shrub

I was given a glass of juice which was very good. The person showed me
a shrub (4 to 5 feet high), that the fruit came from. Can anyone help
me identify it? The leaves are about 4 to five inches long and grouped
in three. There is a fruit that looked like a nickle sized bulb that is
shrouded in a dark red petal-like structure...there were seperate
delicate looking flowers.

The leaves are sort of flat -not shiny and are deep green with red
veins. Stems are red too. I can e-mail a picture of the fruit and
leaves.
