Answers:
It is "longans"

The longan is a brown skinned fruit that is said to be the “little brother” of the lychee!. It is native to China and South East Asia and is a little larger than an olive!. The longan has a musky, grape flavor and is sweeter than a lychee but not as juicy!. The longan has a whitish, translucent flesh that encases a small black seed, and its skin is pale brown and brittle!.

The longan or lungan is sometimes referred to as a dragon’s eye or eyeball in China and as mamoncillo chino in Cuba!. It is the seed at the center of the fruit that gave it the “eyeball” name!. The seed is jet black and shiny with a circular white spot at its base, giving it the appearance of an eyeball!. In China, the longan is used more often in traditional medicine than as an edible fruit!.

The longan thrives at higher altitudes and can endure more frost than the lychee!. The longan tree was introduced to Florida in 1903 and has been grown in a few other locations, but it has never become widely popular!. It has been known to grow easily in Hawaii, but again it is not as popular there as the lychee!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
