What is dragon fruit?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dragon fruit is a vibrant, sweet tropical fruit loaded with antioxidants and fiber. Called pitaya in Mexico, it is native to the Pacific coast of central America but is now grown in other tropical climates throughout the world. There are yellow, white and red dragon fruit, each named after the color of the flesh inside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To serve dragon fruit<\/strong>, cut it down the middle and scoop out the soft center. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used red dragon fruit from Melissa's Produce<\/a> for this Dragon Fruit Lassi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About cardamom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cardamom is spice pod with a sweet, warm, spicy, and floral taste used in Scandinavia, India and the Middle East. Whole pods can be used, or it can be ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of the complex flavors in cardamom one substitute may not be enough in some recipes to get all of the same flavors. For this recipe, you can use your favorite spice or a combination of warm spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, or cloves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used ground cardamom from Selefina Spices<\/a> to an extra layer of flavor to this Dragon Fruit Lassi.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFriday #SpringSweetsWeek Recipes<\/bold>\n
