Tangelo
The tangelo is citrus fruit that is a hybrid of a mandarin orange and a pummelo or a grapefruit. It may have originated in Southeast Asia over 3,500 years ago. The fruits look like good-sized, oblong oranges and have a tangerine taste, but are very juicy, to the point of not providing much meat but producing excellent and plentiful juice.
