What Are Raspberries?

 

Raspberries are edible fruits from plants in the Rosaceae family, renowned for their sweet-tart flavor. While varieties include black, purple, and golden raspberries, red raspberries (Rubus idaeus) are the most common. Native to Europe and Northern Asia, they're now cultivated globally in temperate regions. In the U.S., most raspberries grow in California, Washington, and Oregon.
These delicate berries have a short shelf life and are typically harvested in summer and fall. For optimal freshness and flavor, consume them soon after purchase.
