The Soursop/Guanabana fruit is incredibly delicious and can vary in acidity. The Fruit from the tree in this video is one of the finest I have ever tasted. This tree produces delicious, slightly acidic yet very sweet soursop fruit. I truly enjoyed drinking the fantastic milkshakes offered to me by my good friends wife. I must admit, it was a surprise to find the fruit so tasty.
When I was a young boy my dad used to make me drink his shakes and they were horrible! Sorry dad. My dads shakes tasted horrible because they were prepared using supermarket frozen pulp. Yuck! Back in those days we lived in the concrete jungle, I affectionately called New York City. Try growing a tropical soursop in New York City.
Trust me on this, fresh is best! Problem is most people can't find fruit anywhere these days. The solution might be that you grow your own soursop tree. Hey why not, it's not so difficult once you know what soursop/guanabana trees need.
Tip: A mature Soursop is ready to harvest when the soft pliable spines are set far apart and the green shiny color breaks to a slight yellow. Some fruits turn a dark purple when left on a kitchen counter for a few extra days. Each fruit will mature on the tree at different times. Cut off and leave a piece of the stem on the fruit until ready to eat. They are great chilled and in shakes.
