Grapefruit

citrus · subtropical · breakfast fruit

Subtropical sunshine fruit. Grapefruits grow on trees in warm, sunny places and need that tropical warmth to develop their big, juicy fruits. They love the heat and bright light.

Part of the citrus family. Grapefruits are cousins to oranges, lemons, and limes. They all belong to the same citrus family of fruit trees and share similar traits.

Rainbow of pink and yellow. Some grapefruits have pale yellow flesh, while others have dark pink or red flesh inside. The color depends on the type of grapefruit tree.

Tangy and slightly bitter. Unlike sweet oranges, grapefruits have a tart, sour taste with a hint of bitterness that some people love. They're perfect for waking up your taste buds at breakfast.

Big and segmented inside. Grapefruits are one of the largest citrus fruits, and when you cut them open, you'll see they're divided into neat segments, just like oranges.
