Did you know that dragon fruit is a popular fruit grown in the United States? The fruit gets its distinct name from its leather-like skin and scaly spikes.
From cocktails to juices, dragon fruit is consumed in a variety of ways that can be both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.
• 2 teaspoons white sugar • 16 leaves fresh mint • 1 cup light rum • 1 dragon fruit, halved and flesh removed • 1 ltr. chilled club soda
In a highball glass, combine 2 tablespoon of mint leaves with 2 teaspoons of sugar.
Blend the flesh of the dragon fruit with the rum until smooth. Over the rum and mint mixture, drizzle. Stir to mix it.
The mixture should be divided among 4 double old-fashioned glasses. Add equal amounts of club soda to each beverage's top.
