Dragon Fruit may not be a much known or common fruit and when we see it, we generally ignore. I too used to do the same until I had not used it…..And when I dared to buy it and tried to make something out of it….It turned out surprisingly tasty. It was a smoothie which I made with this odd looking fruit adding coconut milk and honey. And trust me guys it turned out so delicious n refreshing.
Scaly and vibrant outside but fleshly, seedy and dense inside…….This wonderful Tropical fruit is a storehouse of nutrients.like vitamin B and C….Low in calories and zero cholesterol, has the potential to become a favourite of weight loss seekers. This is sweet and fresh when eaten as a fruit but other dishes which are prepared with this, like the milkshake, smoothies, ice cream or cake taste awesome…Here I’m sharing smoothie which I have prepared with coconut milk and honey…Ginger and mint has enhanced and taken the flavour to another level
