Raspberries are small, vibrant red fruits known for their sweet-tart flavor and juicy texture. They grow on perennial plants that belong to the genus Rubus in the rose family. Each raspberry is made up of numerous tiny drupelets, which are clustered around a central core. These drupelets give raspberries their distinctive bumpy appearance. Raspberries are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, making them a popular choice for healthy eating. They can be enjoyed fresh, added to desserts, blended into smoothies, or used to make jams and sauces. In addition to the common red variety, raspberries also come in black, purple, and golden hues.
