Health Benefits of Litchis

Succulently sweet litchis are delicious as a natural thirst quencher when eaten ice cold from the fridge or as part of your favourite salads, smoothies or desserts.

Litchis are an excellent source of vitamin C, containing an average of 72mg of vitamin C per 100g of fruit. This means just nine litchis yield the daily recommended vitamin C allowance for adults. Litchis are also a good source of riboflavin, potassium and copper.

Choose the ones that are deep red in colour and have smooth, rounded bumps on the skin — this indicates ripeness and juiciness.
