Description:

Uniq Fruit is remarkably juicy. A glass of Uniq Fruit makes a refreshing, flavorful change to freshly squeezed orange or grapefruit juice. Being easy to peel, the fruit is delicious in many recipes. Eat like a tangerine or cut in half like a grapefruit. Or you can peel it and cut out the segments for a refreshing salad. Uniq Fruit has a subtle sweet tang that does not require additional sugar for eating. However, when served warm (a couple of minutes under the broiler), a sprinkling of brown sugar can make it a breakfast favorite.
