Blood Orange 1Kg

Blood orange is a citrus fruit that looks similar to orange from the outside but has deep red colored fruit and juice. The red color is the result of anthocyanin, which develops when these citrus fruits ripen during warm days tempered with cooler nights. Blood oranges have a unique flavor compared to other oranges.

These are essentially divided into three groups: sweet oranges, bitter oranges, and mandarins. The obvious difference between blood oranges and other types of oranges starts with the color.

On the inside, blood oranges can range from shades of red, orange, and purple – depending on the variety and how mature they were at harvest.

The skin can show various amounts of red again depending on its maturity and variety. Blood oranges are more acidic than Navel or Valencia oranges. They do have a unique flavor that many categorize as raspberry-like.
