Fruits

Simply put, this is the most popular juice mango from the Andhra Pradesh region of India. It usually comes in 2 sizes- the smaller, more popular is called chinna rasalu. The most sought after chinna rasalu mangoes come from the Nuzvid region of Andhra. The peda rasalu is more widely grown and all over the Andhra region- it can get very big in size. Another variation of this mango is the Cheruku Rasalu (sometimes also called Cheruku rasam)- this mango is juicy like the rasalu, but extremely sweet (Cheruku means sugary), although it gives up some of its fragrance to accommodate the sweetness.

The peak season for Rasalu is between mid-April and mid-June.
