What's one of our favourite things about summer (aside from the obvious, summery cocktails, ice cream and homemade popsicles)? Stone fruits. Stone fruits—technically called drupes—are any fruit that contain a hard pit (or stone) in the centre of the fruit. Obvious examples are peaches, nectarines and plums, but lesser thought of stone fruits include mangoes, cherries and even avocados.
So, why do we love them? Aside from being seriously delicious, sweet and juicy during the summer months (when they are often grown locally and at their peak), stone fruits are low in calories, have a high water content which boosts hydration, contain loads of fibre which aids in digestion and offer a serious dose of vitamins, antioxdant and phytonutrients. Keep reading for the low-down of some of our fave summer stone-fruits.
