Star Ruby Grapefruit

Star Ruby grapefruit is a variety of Citrus paradisi that was originally found growing as a sport on a grapefruit tree in San Benito, Texas in the 1930’s.

Star Ruby Grapefruits are sweet and tart, with a vibrant tang underlying the flavor profile. Full of delicious juice and crisp red flesh, Star Ruby grapefruits are unmistakable in aromatics and flavor. Most often eaten fresh in breakfast preparations, grapefruit may also be used in savory salads, baked dishes, or juiced into cocktails, vinaigrette or frozen desserts. The flesh and juice may also be cooked down into sauces, syrups and jams.

Pair Star Ruby grapefruit with other citrus, tropical fruit, avocados, yogurt, root vegetables, salad greens, raw and cooked fish and fresh herbs.
