Dominican fruits

One of the many things that I love about the Dominican is eating fresh fruit all the time.  Today I tried Guanabana juice for the first time...and it was AMAZING.  It doesn't look very attractive from the outside, but it tastes wonderful.

 

Another love of mine is Chinola, also known as passion fruit.  I have not actually eaten the fruit itself, but the juice and the ice cream are sooooo good.  I'm hoping to make a stop at Bon Helado sometime this weekend to get my weekly fix of Chinola ice cream.  Yesterday, Jeff, Dan and I finished off the bottom of their supply.  

 

Well, that is all for now.  If you have the opportunity to try either of these fruits, go for it!  Most likely you will not regret it.  I hope I can find them when I go home...maybe at Fresh Market?

Tomorrow Jeff and I plan to travel to Barahona with Bienva to spend the day at the beach.  I am looking forward to some sun time!!
