Cuban Champola
Categories: Chewing/Sipping

There are a few fruits that I truly miss in Toronto: mamey, guava and guanabana.
You can find almost everything in this city if you know where to go. I know you can find guavas, tamarinds and great mangos and bananas but for some strange or nostalgic reason they do not taste the same. Maybe because they are not coming from my grandma’s backyard and yes, sometimes I get that picky regarding Cuban “stuff”. 🙂
Champola is a milkshake prepared with Guanabana fruit, milk, sugar and ice. It is just a wonderful thing created by the summer gods!
It is definitely at the top of my list. If you have the opportunity to buy guanabanas soon I hope you follow my advice.
