Agbalumo Smoothie (African Star Apple Smoothie)
Agbalumo smoothie turns the African star apple, a tart and juicy fruit popular in Nigeria, into a drink with only three ingredients. Because the recipe has so little in it, the fruit does all the work, and you decide how thick it is and how sweet. Straining it through a sieve at the end gives a smoother glass than most blended fruit drinks manage.
Instructions
Peel the skin off the washed star apples and pull out the seeds, keeping only the soft fruit.
Put the peeled fruit into a blender and start blending. Pour in water a little at a time until the smoothie reaches the thickness you like.
Sweeten to taste with honey or sugar and blend briefly to mix it in. Pour the smoothie through a sieve to catch any remaining fibers, then serve.
Make it personal.
