Recipe(tried): Guava Recipes

Carol:

In Puerto Rico we use the guava plant for many uses. Fresh guavas are available during the summer months. I am enclosing a few recipes with them.

Guava Cocktail:

1/4 cup rum
1/4 cup guava nectar or 4 guavas passed through the blender and then throgh a sieve
1/4 cup pinneaple juice
1/4 cup cream of coconut
2 cups ice cubes

Combine all ingredients in blender. Pour into tall cristal glasses. Garnish with orange slices.

Guava Mousse

6 egg whites
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup frozen guava pulp, thawed

Beat the egg whites and sugar until stiff. In separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until it has soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream and guava into the egg whites, in several batches. Serve in beautiful crystal cups. Can be served inmediately or frozen for later.

I hope you enjoy the recipe. Gladys,PR
