Phytolea™ Prickly Pear

The fleshy fruit of the Mexican cactus

Originally found in Mexico, this cactus is now cultivated all around the Mediterranean basin. With its smooth and very sweet taste the prickly pear must be consumed fresh, as a juice or as a jam. Thirst-quenching fruit cactus water is energising and refreshing. Its oil is used for its anti-ageing properties due to its antioxidant power and to cure skin infections thanks to its antibacterial and soothing properties.
