Most people have eaten dragon fruit which is a pitahaya and not a pitaya, the taste and sweetness of a pitaya is 10 times that of a dragon fruit that is why you should try a pitaya! They are juicy, refreshing, and especially sweet like no other fruit I've had before. Pitayas grow on the organ pipe cactus which is native to Mexico and the southwest region of the United States. The pitaya season is between March and June and the pitaya can only be refrigerated for a few days after it has been picked therefore if you ever visit Mexico it would be worthwhile finding and allowing your taste buds to discover this amazing fruit!
