# FLORIDA GRAPEFRUIT RED EX LG
Florida Red Extra Large Grapefruit brings vibrant citrus flavor and natural sweetness to your kitchen. Known for their deep red color, juicy flesh, and superior taste, Florida grapefruits are premium citrus fruits that deliver exceptional quality and nutrition in every bite. These extra large grapefruits are carefully selected for size and ripeness, offering you the perfect balance of tartness and natural sweetness that makes Florida citrus a favorite among home cooks and health-conscious consumers.
Rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, these fresh Florida grapefruits are ideal for healthy breakfast options, fresh juices, or adding brightness to your daily diet. The beautiful red flesh indicates high levels of lycopene, the same antioxidant found in tomatoes. Whether you're slicing them in half for a classic grapefruit breakfast, segmenting them into salads, or squeezing fresh juice, extra large grapefruits provide excellent value with more usable fruit. Florida has a proud tradition of growing exceptional citrus, and these grapefruit varieties benefit from ideal growing conditions and generations of expertise in fruit cultivation.
Try grapefruits in sweet and savory applications: segment them into green salads with arugula and avocado, create a refreshing grapefruit vinaigrette, or use fresh juice in seafood ceviche and cocktails. For baking and cooking, grapefruit zest adds aromatic citrus notes to cakes, glazes, and marinades. The fruit pairs beautifully with salmon, shrimp, duck, and chicken dishes. Simply cut your large grapefruit in half, add a touch of honey or brown sugar, and enjoy a nourishing breakfast, or incorporate into smoothie bowls with yogurt and granola. Store your Florida grapefruit in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and maximize shelf life for recipes throughout the week.
