Taiwanese red-fleshed dragon fruit, 2 pieces

Red dragon fruit from the core production regions of Taiwan, China, is renowned for its deep red flesh, honey-like sweetness, and juiciness. The flesh is a deep purplish-red, with a soft, delicate, and honey-like texture, accompanied by a fresh fruity aroma and a subtle hint of rose. It is refreshing and sweet without being cloying, leaving a pleasant lingering sweetness on the palate.

The red color of red dragon fruit comes primarily from betalains (about 10-29mg/100g), which is several times higher than its anthocyanin content and provides excellent antioxidant activity. Compared to white-fleshed dragon fruit, the red variety has a higher sweetness—reaching 18-22 Brix—and a softer, smoother texture. The fruit is rich in plant-based albumin, dietary fiber, vitamin C, anthocyanins, betalains, and potassium. With approximately 55 kcal per 100g, it is a low-calorie, nutrient-dense fruit.

PAF Tips:
Refrigerate immediately at 3-5℃ upon receipt! It is recommended to consume within 24 hours after cutting to prevent oxidation from affecting the flavor. You may notice red discoloration in your stool 1-2 days after consumption; this is due to the natural pigment, betalain, and is no cause for concern—simply drink more water and it will return to normal.
