A delightfully red-hued apple, Ambrosia is a newer variety on the scene. It’s a surprisingly tropical-tasting apple, mildly sweet and a bit tart, with a crisp bite.
Like a fairy tale find, the variety was discovered by pickers, growing in a Jonagold orchard in Canada. In a world of breeding the perfect flavorful bite, Ambrosia made its appearance on its own.
Ambrosia is excellent for snacking, and its slow-to-brown flesh makes it ideal for apple-and-cheese plates. Still a sleeper variety, it quickly becomes a favorite once people try it.
Arriving in stores later in the fall and storing beautifully, Ambrosia is an ideal winter apple.
