Soursop was never on my list of healthy juices as a child. In fact, every time my mother would prepare it (mostly on Sundays), I would just gulp it down like a disliked dose of medicine.  However, having grown and realized the plethora of health benefits of this prickly-like fruit, it has become a staple of mine.  Anytime I am able to get one, it’s like a well-deserved treat and a half.  Here is a very simple way of enjoying it as a punch. Try it nuh!

INGREDIENTS

• A soursop.
• 1 ½ cups of Milk (your preferred choice).
• A dash of salt.
• ½ tsp vanilla.
• ¼ tsp. Nutmeg.
• Preferred Sweetener (optional/to taste).

INSTRUCTIONS

• Peel soursop and remove seeds.
• Remove and discard the thick stalk that runs down the middle of the fruit.
• Add the thick pulp pieces to a blender.
• Add:
  • Milk (I use Almond or Coconut Milk).
  • Vanilla
  • Nutmeg
  • Salt
• Blend all ingredients until thick and smooth.
• Serve and Enjoy!
• Chill it, for a more refreshing treat.

Notes:

Soursop can be enjoyed without milk.  As such, just remove the seeds, add water, and blend. Then sweetened with your choice of sweetener, a pinch of salt, or just add lime with your choice of a sweetener and enjoy.  For this recipe, I did not use any sugar as the almond milk I used was the sweetened version. It was good!
