List your top 5 favorite fruits.
1. Mangoes:
Ah, the beloved mango! Nairobi’s warm climate provides the perfect conditions for these juicy delights to flourish. Whether enjoyed fresh or in a refreshing smoothie, mangoes are a true taste of summer in Nairobi.
2. Avocados:
Creamy, nutritious, and oh-so-versatile, avocados hold a special place in my heart (and on my plate!). Nairobi’s avocado trees bear fruit abundantly, offering a bounty of creamy goodness for salads, toast, or simply eaten straight from the skin.
3. Pineapples:
Nothing beats the sweet tanginess of Nairobi’s locally grown pineapples. Bursting with flavor and packed with vitamins, these tropical treats add a refreshing zing to fruit salads, desserts, and even savory dishes.
4. Papayas:
Rich in vitamins and antioxidants, papayas are a staple in Nairobi’s fruit markets. Their vibrant orange flesh and sweet, tropical taste make them a delightful addition to breakfasts, smoothies, or enjoyed on their own as a nutritious snack.
5. Watermelons:
When the Nairobi sun beats down, there’s nothing quite as satisfying as biting into a juicy slice of watermelon. Refreshing, hydrating, and oh-so-delicious, watermelons are a summertime essential in Nairobi.
