Fruits that you Must Try in Brazil

posted on February 5, 2009

I suggest that you try these fruits in all forms: drink the juice, have a fantastic ice cream, eat the sweets, and, of course, just eat the fruit!

 
 
 

Caju 

Did you know that cashew nuts come from caju? You can see them in this photo. Read my earlier post to learn more about caju.

 
 

 

 

Cupuaçu

Native to the Amazon; very used in juices and chocolates

 

 
 
 
 
 

Açaí

Please, you have to eat açaí na tigela com granola. Regardless of any açaí product that you may have tried, please do not come back from Brazil without eating açaí na tigela!

 
 
 

Seriguela

 
 
 

Carambola

 
 
 

Cajá

 
 

Jaca
 
 
 
 
 
 

Pinha

 
 

Acerola 

Super rich in vitamin C
 
 
 
 

Mangaba

(I love the ice cream and the juice!)

 
 
 
 

Goiaba

Ok, I know you have guava in the U.S. But have you ever eaten a juicy guava?

 
 
 
 

Pitanga
 
 

There are many other fruits in Brazil, of course. This is just a sample of all you are going to taste there 🙂
