❓ Common Questions

What is Pitaya?
Pitaya, or dragon fruit, is a tropical fruit that grows on a cactus. It comes in white or vibrant pink varieties and has a mild, melon-like flavor with tiny edible seeds.

How Do I Make It Thicker?
Use only frozen fruit and reduce liquid. You can also add yogurt or avocado for a thicker base.

Can I Make It Ahead of Time?
Yes! Blend and freeze in airtight containers. When ready to eat, let it thaw for a few minutes and stir to restore consistency.


✅ Final Tips

  • For best results, freeze your banana and berries ahead of time.

  • Use a powerful blender or food processor — the thicker the better!

  • Top just before serving to keep textures fresh and crunchy.
