Lychee

Indulge in the sweet, floral flavor of fresh lychee sold by the pound! With their vibrant red skin and fragrant, tender flesh, these fruits are a sweet and refreshing snack packed with vitamin C and antioxidants.

• Taste & Texture: delicately sweet with floral notes, often compared to a mix of grape, rose, and a hint of citrus. It’s light, aromatic, and incredibly refreshing. Beneath its bumpy red shell lies a smooth, translucent-white flesh that’s juicy, tender, and slightly firm similar to a peeled grape, but silkier.
• Health Benefits: Rich in vitamin C, good source of antioxidants like polyphenols (including rutin, quercetin, and kaempferol) which help combat oxidative stress and may reduce the risk of chronic diseases, aids in digestion, supports heart health, boosts immunity, promotes healthy skin, may have anti-cancer properties, and aids in weight management
• How to Eat: Simply peel away the outer shell with your fingers or a knife, remove the inedible brown seed inside, and enjoy the fruit fresh! Lychee is perfect on its own or added to fruit salads, desserts, cocktails, or chilled drinks.

• Storage Tips: Store lychee in the refrigerator in a breathable container or produce bag. Best enjoyed within 5–7 days for peak freshness. You can also freeze peeled lychee for smoothies or future recipes!
