Red Dragon Fruit

Red Dragon Fruit

Our red dragon fruit is a vibrant tropical fruit with juicy flesh and a naturally refreshing sweetness. Customers also look for it as pink dragon fruit or purple dragon fruit because of its rich flesh colour, which ranges from deep pink to magenta.

On the outside, it looks similar to other dragon fruit varieties, but once cut open, the flesh stands out with its bold colour and fuller flavour. It is a popular choice for customers who enjoy tropical fruit with a sweeter profile and a more striking appearance in fruit bowls, platters and smoothies.

Storage Tips

Leave dragon fruit on the counter if you plan to enjoy it within 2 to 3 days. If you want to keep it longer, store it in the refrigerator to help slow ripening and maintain freshness.

For best quality, avoid cutting or peeling the fruit until you are ready to eat it. Once cut, keep it in a covered container in the refrigerator and consume it within a few days.

Handling Tips

Because the flesh of red dragon fruit is richly coloured, its juice can stain hands, cloth and light surfaces more easily than lighter-flesh varieties. It is best to prepare it carefully and wipe spills promptly.
