@miamifruit: Who loves citrus season?? 😍🍊 This gorgeous citrus is native to the Mediterranean seacoast of Southern Europe. They are a natural mutation of the regular orange, first cultivated on the Italian isle of Sicily where they have been grown since the 18th century. For a long time, they were reserved only for royalty. The dark-red pigments called anthocyanins, which give blood oranges their distinct color, only form when the temperatures are low at night—a weather condition common to fall and winter in the Mediterranean. Blood oranges are ready to eat as soon as they are picked. Each blood orange contains a different amount of anthocyanins, which may affect how red the fruit is on the outside and inside. ➡️ miamifruit.org 🌈 #orange #citrus #bloodorange #bloodoranges #fruit #miamifruit
