/Sounds like "froo" (as in "fruit") + "TEE" (as in "tea") + "yah" (as in "yard")/

Meaning

Strawberry in Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, and other Southern Cone countries. It's the exact same delicious red fruit that Mexico and Spain call fresa, but down there it's frutilla and there's no debate.

Examples

A frutilla ice cream with cream.

Frutillas are crazy expensive this season.
