 Blood oranges are a unique variety of orange known for their deep crimson flesh and distinct flavor, offering numerous health benefits and culinary uses. Blood oranges originated in Sicily, Italy, and are believed to be a natural mutation of the sweet orange, with their cultivation spreading to various regions, including Spain and California.
Tarocco blood oranges, the Sanguinello blood oranges, and the Moro blood oranges are also celebrated for their very sweet and mellow taste. Some ascribe subtle flavoring hints of raspberry and strawberry to the blood oranges.

Blood oranges are "bloody" from a pigment called anthocyanin, which is widely found in the plant kingdom and can appear red, as in cherries and red cabbage to blue as in blueberries and cornflowers, or even purple as in pansies and eggplants (aubergines). Anthocyanin is reported to have many health benefits as it is a powerful antioxidant that can slow or prevent the growth of cancer cells–and even kill them. Moreover, blood oranges contain high amounts of Vitamin C (up to 130% of recommended daily amount), potassium, Vitamin A, iron, calcium, and even fiber.
Blood oranges are incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in various ways.
Eat them raw, add them to salads, make juice, create marmalade, or use them in cooking (e.g., orange chicken stir-fry). You can also mix them with cranberries for a fruit salad, add slices to cocktails, or use them as a garnish for your favorite dishes. With their sweet and mellow taste, the possibilities are endless!
