About Naartjies

Naartjies, also called mandarin oranges or tangerines, are small, easy-to-peel citrus fruits native to Asia but widely grown in South Africa. Known for their vibrant orange color and sweet, tangy flavor, naartjies are packed with essential nutrients. They are rich in vitamin C, which supports immune health and collagen production, and contain fiber for digestive health. Naartjies also have small amounts of vitamins A and B, along with minerals like potassium that help regulate blood pressure. Low in calories and fat-free, they make an ideal snack or addition to salads and desserts. Their naturally occurring sugars provide energy, though those monitoring sugar intake should consume them in moderation. In South African cuisine, naartjies are commonly enjoyed fresh or used in juices, preserves, and sauces. Refreshing, nourishing, and versatile, naartjies offer a delicious way to boost your diet with essential nutrients.
