WELCOME TO VIET NAM: THE LAND OF TROPICAL FRUITS!

1. Rose Apple (Quả Roi | Quả Mận)

Light, crisp, and refreshing, Rose Apple has a subtle sweetness and high water content—perfect for cooling down on a hot tropical day. Its bell-like shape and delicate flavor make it a favorite street snack.

2. Pomelo / Grapefruit (Quả Bưởi)

Much sweeter and less bitter than Western grapefruit, Vietnamese pomelo is juicy and fragrant. It’s often enjoyed during festivals or used in fresh salads.

3. Rambutan (Quả Chôm Chôm)

Don’t be fooled by its hairy red shell—inside lies a juicy, translucent fruit bursting with sweetness. Rambutan is a must-try for adventurous eaters.

4. Lychee (Quả Vải)

Famous in Northern Vietnam, especially during summer, lychee is aromatic, soft, and incredibly sweet. Best enjoyed fresh from local orchards.

5. Mangosteen (Quả Măng Cụt)

Often called the “queen of fruits,” mangosteen has a thick purple rind and soft white segments inside. Its flavor is a perfect balance of sweet and tangy.

6. Longan (Quả Nhãn)

Similar to lychee but slightly more musky in flavor, longan is juicy and refreshing. It’s commonly used in desserts and traditional sweet soups.

7. Guava (Quả Ổi)

Crunchy or soft depending on ripeness, guava is often served with chili salt for a sweet-spicy kick. It’s a popular snack among locals.

8. Royal Banana (Quả Chuối Ngự)

Smaller and more fragrant than regular bananas, Royal Banana is naturally sweet and considered a delicacy fit for royalty in the past.

9. Jackfruit (Quả Mít)

Large and bold, jackfruit has a distinctive aroma and sweet, chewy texture. It can be eaten fresh or used in both sweet and savory dishes.

10. Dragon Fruit (Quả Thanh Long)

With its striking pink skin and speckled flesh, dragon fruit is as beautiful as it is refreshing. Mildly sweet, it’s perfect for smoothies and fruit bowls.

11. Langsat (Quả Bòn Bon)

Small and golden, langsat has a sweet and slightly sour taste. Peel the thin skin to reveal juicy segments inside.

12. Star Fruit (Quả Khế)

Slice it crosswise and you’ll get a perfect star shape! This fruit is both decorative and delicious, with a crisp texture and a tangy-sweet flavor.
