A morning without orange juice is like a morning without sunshine. Remember that old advertisement saying for OJ? Well, in a sense it’s true. Florida is a major grower of citrus fruit, and the sunny Florida groves soak up that vitamin C and pass it on as oranges, grapefruit and tangerines. You actually can taste the sun in these delightful little treats . What more thoughtful gift could you send to a ally that a fruit basket stuffed with this bountiful harvest ?
Think about it for a minute . Sure on the surface you’re giving a basket of juicy fruit that’s going to delight even the most obscure palate much less your best friend who thinks McDonald’s McFlurry is a gourmet treat . But besides that you really are delivering sunshine. Or at least the chemical byproducts which include vitamin C, B1, B2, Thiamine and a variety of antioxidant agents that do wonders for the body. The fruit is sweet and juicy and also good for you . What a fablulous friend you are.
And what choices to select from. Florida fruit boxes aren’t just about citrus although oranges aren’t a bad thing to send. No Florida fruit baskets can be a single fruit or a mix of fruit and even come with non-fruit treats . You can pick from tangerines, grapefruit, melons and cherries . Nuts of all kinds and candy are also available .
The big challenge with a Florida fruit basket is picking what type of fruit to send . When you say you’re going to send tangerines it’s kind of like saying you are going to send a car. What kind of car? Tangerines, like oranges and grapefruit, come in a bunch of different types each with their own characteristics and season. In fact, season may be the decider for you here. Remember this is fresh fruit not frozen or canned. This citrus comes direct from the grove and is dependent on the weather.
Take some time and peruse the different choices you have before making your decision. You can rest assured that whatever you choose your friend will get the health benefit so it really is a decision based on sweetness and taste. If you just can’t make up your mind flip a coin. It’s that easy because you just can’t go wrong.
Fruit baskets from Florida are a way of telling a friend that they are special. They are going to love it and talk about it for month.
