Three Guys From Miami: Cuban and Spanish Food Recipes
Jorge Castillo: The guanábana is a delicious tropical fruit with a light pineapple-citrus flavor with hints of vanilla.

Glenn Lindgren: This fruit is also called soursop in many countries. Many Cubans also grow and use the cherimoya, a fruit with a similar flavor.

Jorge Castillo: To remove the pulp from a ripe guanábana or cherimoya, cut the fruit in half and spoon out the soft interior. Unlike the granadilla, you must remove the seeds!

Batidos - Cuban Milkshakes


Batido de Guanábana -- Cuban Guanábana Milkshake

By Three Guys From Miami



Prep time: 10 minutes
Total time: 10 minutes
Yield: Varies

Batidos are Cuban milkshakes, similar to American Style milkshakes, but with several unusual flavors.


1 cup whole milk
3 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
3 tablespoons sugar (to taste)
1/2 cup crushed ice
1 cup fresh ripe guanábana pulp

Put everything in the blender except the ice and process until frothy. Add the crushed ice and process until the ice is ground fine and the batido is thick and rich.

TIP: If you have time, you can freeze your fruit and omit the crushed ice, for a thicker, richer shake. Just cube the fruit or cut it in smaller chunks and freeze. You may also find frozen fruit chunks (not pulp) at your local market. If using frozen pulp -- because your local grocer does not carry exotic fruits, but the local Latin market sells pulp -- allow the pulp to thaw slightly. Break the pulp into smaller chunks to accomodate your blender.
NOTE: The sweetened condensed milk is a very Cuban addition. You may omit this ingredient by substituting an equal amount of sugar or to your own taste.
