Dragon Fruit Mojito
While in Thailand, we discovered lots of new foods. From unique vegetables like baby eggplants to crazy new spices and herbs. But one of the most colorful and prettiest things we discovered were dragon fruit. They’re also known as pitayas. Sure I’ve seen them before here and there, but who would ever think to grab one? Not me! These pretty fruits adorned with little black seeds in the perfect white flesh were at every single breakfast we had.
