List of Fruits That Contain G

1

African Cherry Orange

Citropsis articulata

A small, thick-skinned wild African citrus with intensely fragrant peel and tart pulp — used more for marmalade and traditional medicine than fresh eating.

2

Bergamot

Citrus bergamia

The citrus fruit that gives Earl Grey tea its distinctive floral, perfumed flavour — a sour, pear-shaped orange-yellow fruit grown almost exclusively in Calabria, southern Italy; too bitter to eat fresh, its cold-pressed rind oil is one of the most important aromatic compounds in perfumery and flavouring.

3

Blood Orange

Citrus × sinensis

A red-fleshed orange variety from Sicily and Spain — its dramatic red color comes from anthocyanins triggered by cold winter nights, a chemistry trick most citrus regions can't replicate.

4

Dragon Fruit

Hylocereus undatus, H. costaricensis, H. megalanthus

The visually striking fruit of a Central American climbing cactus — bright pink-red shell with green spiky scales, opening to white or magenta flesh dotted with tiny black seeds.

5

Fig

Ficus carica

A teardrop-shaped fruit with soft sweet flesh and tiny seeds, technically an inverted flower; one of the oldest cultivated plants and central to Mediterranean cuisine.

6

Finger Lime

Citrus australasica

An Australian native citrus shaped like a small finger that releases tiny "caviar pearls" of tart citrus juice when cut open — a fine-dining garnish prized for its visual drama and crisp acidity.

7

Galia Melon

Cucumis melo var. reticulatus

An aromatic Israeli muskmelon hybrid created in the 1970s — netted yellow skin with pale green sweet flesh, considered the most fragrant of the supermarket melons.

8

Gooseberry

Ribes uva-crispa

A small translucent green or red berry — once Britain's favorite hedgerow fruit, the subject of competitive gooseberry-growing societies, and the base of classic English fool desserts.

9

Grape

Vitis vinifera (Old World) / Vitis labrusca (American)

A small berry of a woody vine, eaten fresh, dried as raisins, or fermented into wine — one of humanity's oldest cultivated fruits.

10

Grapefruit

Citrus paradisi

A large bitter-tart citrus, a hybrid of pomelo and sweet orange that emerged in 18th-century Barbados, eaten fresh or juiced and famous for drug interactions.

11

Grapes

Vitis vinifera

Small clustered berries from a woody vine — eaten fresh, dried into raisins, pressed for juice, or fermented into the world's most important beverage, wine.

12

Greengage

Prunus domestica italica (Reine Claude group)

The most complex and honey-sweet of all plums — a green-skinned, golden-fleshed European plum with a flavour of remarkable depth, described as combining honey, apricot, and fresh cream; considered by many to be the best-tasting plum variety, though its thin skin, tendency to split, and small size make it commercially unviable.

13

Grewia Asiatica

Grewia asiatica

The botanical name for falsa — a small purple South Asian summer berry, also known as Phalsa, used in cooling drinks and Ayurvedic medicine across the subcontinent.

14

Guava

Psidium guajava

A round green or yellow tropical fruit with intensely fragrant pink or white flesh — a global tropical orchard staple that ranges from sweet snack fruit to ingredient for pastes, juice, and preserves.

15

Langsat

Lansium parasiticum

A small, grape-sized tropical fruit of Southeast Asia — langsat grows in tight pendant clusters on the trunk and branches of tall trees, with thin, yellow-brown skin that releases a milky latex when broken; the translucent, jelly-like flesh is divided into segments, varying from sweet-tart to slightly bitter depending on how the seed is handled when eating; a beloved fresh fruit in Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

16

Lingonberry

Vaccinium vitis-idaea

A small, tart red berry of the boreal forests of Scandinavia, North America, and Russia — similar in appearance to cranberry but smaller and sharper; the essential condiment of Swedish cuisine, served with meatballs, game, and pancakes.

17

Loganberry

Rubus × loganobaccus

A 19th-century California garden hybrid — half blackberry, half raspberry, dark red, intensely flavored, and the historical ancestor of modern boysenberries and tayberries.

18

Longan

Dimocarpus longan

A small Asian fruit related to lychee but smaller, milder, and with a clear translucent flesh — the "dragon eye" of Chinese markets, eaten fresh or dried as a tonic ingredient.

19

Magellan Barberry

Berberis microphylla

A small dark Patagonian berry (also called calafate) — Tierra del Fuego's iconic fruit, with a folk legend that whoever eats one will return to Patagonia.

20

Mango

Mangifera indica

A tropical drupe known as the "king of fruits" in South Asia, prized for its sweet, juicy flesh and grown across more than 100 countries.

21

Mangosteen

Garcinia mangostana

A purple-shelled tropical Asian fruit with snow-white segmented flesh of intense sweet-tart flavor — the "queen of fruits" to many connoisseurs, banned from U.S. import for decades, now slowly returning.

22

Orange

Citrus sinensis (sweet) / Citrus aurantium (bitter)

A bright citrus with sweet juicy flesh and aromatic peel, the world's most widely cultivated fruit by tonnage and the namesake for the color itself.

23

Pomegranate

Punica granatum

A tough-skinned fruit packed with hundreds of jewel-like seeds (arils), each surrounded by tart-sweet juice — a Persian native steeped in mythology.

24

Quandong

Santalum acuminatum

Australia's native peach — a small, bright red fruit with tart, tangy flesh and a large deeply ridged stone; a staple of Aboriginal Australian diet for thousands of years, now increasingly used in Australian native cuisine and bush food products.

25

Seville Orange

Citrus aurantium

The bitter orange used for the world's most celebrated marmalade — too sour and pungent to eat fresh, its thick peel and intensely flavoured juice are perfect for jam-making; the brief winter season (January–February) is eagerly awaited by British marmalade makers, and the orange's history in Spain stretches to the Moorish period.

26

Tangelo

Citrus × tangelo

A tangerine-pomelo hybrid with a distinctive nipple-like bump at the stem end — juicy, sweet-tart, easy to peel, and the genetic ancestor of several modern grocery citrus varieties.

27

Tangerine

Citrus tangerina (a mandarin variety)

A small, sweet, easy-to-peel citrus fruit, a member of the mandarin orange family that gives most modern citrus hybrids their sweetness.

28

Ugli Fruit

Citrus reticulata × paradisi

A bumpy, lopsided Jamaican citrus hybrid of grapefruit, orange, and tangerine — the trademarked name reflects its homely appearance, which conceals juicy, sweet flesh.

29

Voavanga

Vangueria madagascariensis

A small, tart-sweet African fruit (also called Spanish tamarind) eaten fresh or made into juice, with bright orange flesh around large flat seeds and a flavor between apple and tamarind.
