Who doesn't love fresh fruit? It's like a burst of refreshing goodness, packed with vitamins and fibre. But let's face it. Sometimes it's just not practical to carry around a bunch of bananas or a juicy watermelon. Enter freeze-dried fruits, the superhero of convenience. Imagine taking a perfectly ripe and delicious fruit, freezing it, and magically removing every drop of moisture.

Dragon Fruit, also known as pitaya or pitahaya, is a tropical Fruit that comes from several cactus species. It far surpasses various other Fruits and berries for its rich magnesium and iron content and is loved for its low calorie content. While consuming fresh Dragon Fruit is a popular way to enjoy its taste and nutritional benefits, Dragon Fruit powder has deservedly gained popularity as a convenient and versatile supplement.

Dragons, unicorns, and fairies may exist solely in the realm of fantasy, but behold, there exists a fruit that could very well be their delectable lovechild! Picture a magnificent creature soaring through the air, its vibrant scales glistening with an otherworldly glow. Now, imagine sinking your teeth into its flesh, discovering a burst of exotic flavours that dances on your taste buds like a fiesta of flavours!

I’m a huge fan of the delicious Dragon Fruit, which I buy daily at the fresh food market here in Chiang Mai. If eaten prematurely, Dragon Fruit tastes insipid and somewhat tart. However, when fully ripened, their flavour becomes faintly sweet and syrupy. To me ripe Dragon Fruit tastes like a blend of kiwi, pear, and watermelon. The flavour is quite subtle, with a slightly earthy undertone.
