I love this recipe! Well I love anything with Guava in it, especially Guavaberry Liqueor. Come to think of it, you could probably add a shot to this and it would be quite tasty. Probably cancels out the health benefits though…..then again….maybe not 🙂 I also have a recipe for a Guava Colada too.
Ingredients:
1 Ripe guava
1 Ripe banana
1 Cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1 Teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tablespoon honey
1½ Cups crushed ice
Preparation Method:
- Slice banana into 1/2 inch chunks
- Cut ripe guava in half and scoop out pulp
- Put all of the fruit in the blender together
- Pour into the blender the lemon juice and half of the orange juice
Add half of ice to blender and blend - One the ice is blended to a rough mix, add the honey, the rest of the orange juice, and the remainder of the ice into the blender and blend to the consistency you prefer.
- Garnish with a fresh strawberry or a few mint leaves
