It is a small bushy riverside tree from the Amazon rainforest in Peru and Brazil and bears a red/purple cherry-like fruit. As much as 2-3% of the fresh fruit by weight is vitamin C. It is commonly packaged in capsules, mixed in juices and can be added to various baked goods to increase their nutritional profile.
