Lupita Doll with Basket of Pitaya, Dragon Fruit, Cactus

Pitaya is a fruit that grows on the organ pipe cactus in Mexico and in the southwest region of the United States. Dragon fruit is the new name for pitaya, and is the more common and widely used name for the fruit! With the same texture as kiwi, dragon fruit has tiny black seeds, and a similar, mildly sweet taste as well; the seeds themselves are rich in healthy fats and provide a crunchy texture to the juicy superfood.
