Pitaya or pitahaya is commonly sold as dragon fruit. It is the oval spiky, bright pink or yellow fruit of a cactus. The outer skin has a fuchsia color with green leaves and the flesh is white with seeds that are reminiscent of kiwi. The texture of dragon fruit is creamy and it has a subtle aroma of banana and ripe, soft pear. When fully ripened, the skin peels off as it would from an avocado.
Simply cut the pitaya into halves and then scoop out all the fruit with a spoon and put it into a blender, then add a cup of plain yogurt, a frozen banana, 1 tray of ice-cubes and the juice. blend and drink. (adding flor de cana is optional, well not really actually)
