Dragon fruit is native to Central America and is a tropical fruit with a mild flavor which is a mix of kiwi and pear. As I said before, this fruit doesn't have a strong flavor. It is the hot pink color of the fruit that attracts everyone. It is truly nature's gift. They are a must on your plate if you want to add some color, let it be fruit salad, chia pudding, smoothies, or mocktails. You can make your food look jaw-dropping with this fruit.
Dragon fruit comes in two variants as of now. One with white pulp and the other one is a beautiful, eye-catching magenta pink color. Usually, it is the color of the fruit that attracts me. Whenever I see the pink variant available in my supermarket, I'm thrilled to get my hands on them. I just love the color and you can cook up something with this fruit for an insta-worthy shot. Since the fruit has a subtle taste, I prefer to add this fruit to smoothie bowls and smoothies.
