【Video】Famous Taiwanese Jade Purse Lychee Good morning everyone! (Dàjiā zǎo'ān/大家早安！) Did you enjoy the beautiful sunshine over the weekend? Although it is just the beginning of the spring (chūntiān/春天), it… 更多 feels like summer (xiàtiān/夏天) in Taiwan already. Speaking of summer, did you know that the best summer fruit (shuǐguǒ/水果) in Taiwan has to be the famous “jade purse lychee” (yùhébāo玉荷包). Jade purse lychee tastes the best when it's 80% ripe (shóu/熟). It is with more flesh and small seed, juicy (duōshuǐfèn/多水份) and sweet (tián/甜). Picky Japanese customers would order over 100 tons of this variety every year as they only want the Taiwanese jade purse lychee and not the similar smile of concubine lychee (guìfēi lìzhī/貴妃荔枝).
