Homemade dragon fruit soda: Add a little of this syrup to a glass of carbonated water and you have a yummy beautiful pink soda!However, when you make your own Refreshers at home, you can easily leave the green coffee bean extract out. You shouldn't notice any difference in the flavor of the drink. ❤️ Why you'll love this recipe If you find it easier to use fresh fruit, measure out 100g by weight or use roughly a 1/2 cup. Freezing the fruit before combining it with the sugar and hot water will allow it to break down and mix together much easier, but it’s not required. Frozen fruit breaks down rapidly when it thaws, meaning less work for us. But if you don’t want to freeze the fruit in advance, you can simply muddle it thoroughly into the prepared simple syrup. Ways to use this syrup Add pineapple syrup or pineapple pulp by replacing it with mango pulp or syrup to get a perfect fruit tea flavor.

Like I mentioned, I experimented a lot with this drink, especially to try to get all the flavors right. I initially tried to make it similar to my Strawberry Acai Refresher base, but it just didn't taste right- it had too much grape flavor and not enough sweetness. Salad dressing ingredient: The syrup adds delicious flavor and to a homemade salad dressing and will impress your guests with its bright pink color. With its eye-catching appearance, dragon fruit has bright pink or red skin covered in distinctive scales or spikes, resembling the scales of a mythical dragon – hence its name. The taste of dragon fruit is generally very mild. You can best describe it as a flavor-wise tuned-down mix between a kiwi, a watermelon, and a pear. Dragon fruit is just the right texture for scooping and it’s a great candidate for a melon baller for making pretty garnishes or skewers of fruit. What are the different types of dragon fruit?

Although it has colourful aesthetics, dragon fruit has a mild flavour similar to kiwi fruit, watermelon and strawberry. The most common type is the white fleshed variety which in the absence of the red fleshed fruit can be used to make a pink coloured fruity syrup. Perhaps you know it under the name Pitaya, Pitahaya, or dragon fruit, but they all refer to the same thing: an exotic, tropical fruit with pink or yellow skin. It's often described as a combination between a kiwi and a pear, which I definitely agree with. ❤️ Why you'll love this recipe
