A  morning without orange juice is like a morning  without sunshine.   Recall  that old advertisement tag  for OJ?  Well, in a sense it’s true.  Florida is a major raiser 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 juicy  little  snacjks .  What more sensible gift could you send to a friend that a fruit basket  filled up with this treat ? 

Ponder about it for a minute .  Sure on the surface you’re giving a basket of  sweet  citrus that’s going to please  even the most discerning  palate much less your partner   who thinks McDonald’s McFlurry is a  exotic    treat .  But beyond 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 healthy .  What a  fablulous  friend  you are.

And what choices to select from.  Florida fruit baskets  aren’t just about citrus though  citrus   aren’t a  terrible  thing to send.  No Florida fruit baskets can be a single fruit or a mix of fruit and even come with non-fruit add ins  .  You can pick from tangerines, grapefruit, pears  and kiwi .  Nuts of all kinds and chocolate are also available .

The big challenge with a Florida fruit basket is  choosing  what kind of fruit to give .  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  factor  for you here.  Remember this is fresh fruit not frozen or canned.  This stuff 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 founded 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.
