Blood oranges
As it's name suggests, this orange has a crimson, almost-blood-coloured flesh. The fruit is often slightly smaller than a typical orange and it's skin can be either pitted or smooth. The distinctive dark flesh color is due to the presence of anthocyanins, antioxidants which are not found in other citrus fruits.

Select fruit with no damp patches that feels heavy for its size and store in the fridge or in a bowl away from the sunlight.
