Summer and Thai fruits, a duo that just make perfect sense. Here is your juicy guide to Thai fruits beyond mango, durian, and mangosteen– personally recommended by Chattan Kunjara Na Ayudhya (Chat), former Deputy Governor for International Marketing from Tourism Authority of Thailand!
🐍 Snake Fruit (Salak)
Rusty red scales hide crunchy bites that flirt between apple and pineapple. A tangy surprise every time.
🍇 Rambutan
Lychee’s punk cousin with wild red spikes. Peel it for a hit of tropical sweetness.
🌕 Longan
The moody jazz club version of lychee. Smoky, subtle, and softly sweet.
🥭 Green Mango
Tart, cheeky, and best dipped in chili-sugar-salt. Street food attitude in fruit form.
🍏 Custard Apple (Not an apple!)
Soft, spoonable, and vanilla-scented. Dessert in fruit form—no effort required.
🍎 Rose Apple (Also not an apple!)
A floaty, yoga-practising pear. Crisp, light, and refreshing on a hot Thai afternoon.
🌼 Jackfruit
A tropical behemoth that smells like bubblegum and tastes like sunshine. Fibrous, fruity, and found in everything from desserts to curries.
Now, if you want to enjoy these fruits like a pro, try these pairings:
- Pomelo + Riesling = bright & bubbly
- Mango + fresh coconut water = island harmony
