Organic Dragon fruit
Organic dragon fruit from our grower friends in sunny Spain. We’ve chosen this unusual pink-fleshed variety for its full, sweet flavour.
About our organic dragon fruit
Scarlet skin, green scales – this exotic fruit really does look like the skin of a dragon. The flesh within is sweet, mild and refreshing, like a cross between a kiwi and a pear. The most common variety has white pulp, but we’ve chosen the rarer pink-pulped variety for its fuller flavour, speckled with edible black seeds.
This special organic crop is being grown for us by two growers, Miguel Martínez and Francisco de Gea, on their farms on the coast of Murcia, Spain. Tropical fruit grows happily in this hot region, ripening slowly and naturally under the sun.
Country of origin

How to prepare
Dragon fruit are ripe when they give at a slight squeeze. Either peel off the skin and cut the flesh into slices (the seeds are edible), or simply cut it in half and scoop the flesh out with a spoon.
Storage
Delivered ripe and ready to eat, so keep them in the fridge and tuck in soon. For the best flavour, let them get back up to room temperature before eating.
