Lipote (Syzygium polycephaloides) is a small, tropical fruit native to the Philippines, known for its round, dark purple to black berries. It grows on a medium-sized tree and is often found in forests and rural gardens. The fruit has a tart flavour, making it suitable for jams, jellies, and juices. Rich in antioxidants and vitamins, Lipote is also valued for its potential health benefits and traditional medicinal uses.
