Guanábana

This morning I tried fresh guanábana (soursop in English) for the first time! I am in love with this unusual and godly fruit. I first had it in a paleta, (a Mexican frozen dessert bar, typically made of fruit or icecream) at the paletería a few blocks away; it immediately became a contender to mango for my favorite fruit. The texture is soft, juicy, and creamy with subtle string-like fibers and large black seeds. The flavor has citrus, berry, and banana notes that leave your mouth in a state of bliss. We also blended it for a breakfast drink and I am freezing some for dessert.
