Superfood Saturday: Acerola Cherry
This fruit goes by many names—Barbados cherry, wild crapemyrtle, and West Indian myrtle, to name a few. However, it is more known to the public as the vitamin C-rich acerola cherry.
This tiny fruit is grown on small shrubs and evergreen acerola trees. They thrive in the warm climates of Central America, South America, Florida, California, and Texas.
