Blood Oranges

Arnold blood oranges are small to medium-sized oranges with other varieties ranging from perfectly round to more oblong in shape. The bright orange skin of this blood orange is often tinged with a deep red blush. The pith is a stark pale colour compared to the intense maroon colour of the flesh. Anthocyanins present in the flesh of a blood orange are what give the citrus a deep crimson colour. Blood oranges are typically less acidic than orange-coloured varieties and have a softer flesh.
