This video is NOT sponsored. I just wanted to taste a soursop. 🤓

In the caribbean soursop is a must have, make ice cream, frozen ice treats and smoothies. It's delicious.
Sheri soursop ice cream and soursop juice 😍😍😍😍
I had a soursop milkshake in Belize! It was yummy!
Mmmm soursop ice cream😋😍
There must be a reason why it isn't sold much in the USA. Maybe it doesn't travel well or is to expensive to grow on a large scale, like the pawpaw.
+Sheri Agreed!
I will never take guanabana for granted again! $15? I love them, but had no idea they were so expensive in New England. We always say it helps with sleep. It's totally a thing to give children soursop juice after they've annoyed you to get them to nap.😂😂😂
marim0y Lmao 😂 hilarious, now the thing is finding a child who isn’t picky about what fruits they eat.
Is soursop the same as a guanabana? I haven't had either, but I have tasted guanabana candy before and I'm curious. Thanks!
+marim0y Haha!
In the Caribbean we use the leaves the make a tea to help with insomnia.
C. R. G same thing
1- you are adorable
2- you give wonderful descriptions
3- your skin is looooovely
The blackboard is a lovely backdrop. I couldn’t read much but the colours and swirlyness is really visually pleasing.
I’m so happy to have another fruity fruits to watch! They’re one of my favourite types of videos 😊
I love guanabana! I miss having the availability that I had in South America. I would definitely pay $15 for one if they were available in South Carolina. If you could get your hands on a couple of 'naranjillas', a fruit only available in Ecuador, it would be epic. The closest taste is starfruit...made into a juice, it's amazing.
MsKestrela You can order it from MiamiFruit.com. Expensive, but they’ll ship them-fresh-to you! (I’m in Tenn.)
They probably only have these in the tropical part of south America so i will never get to taste this :(
mria621, thank you!
Gaming With Brittney where is this market?! I’m in SC too!
I am shocked at how expensive this is. In Barbados we can just get it from off of a random tree.
Daaaang, 15$ for a Guanábana??? Emmy, honey! I would have sent you a box load from my neighborhood! They are easily found where I live in Puerto Rico. Next time ask your fruity fruits fans for help and we can send you some local beauties in time! ❤️❤️
Tatiana G. González Serrano I wanna try some
I never had it
Aww...😊
emmymadeinjapan Ill see if I can send you some Soursop nectar juices they sell local here at our markets! There are plenty of treats of this fruit
Tatiana G. González Serrano $15 and then super tiny. 😵
$10 a pound?! I guess we won't be seeing that on the Hard Times series, unless there's a way to make it out of saltines and banana peel. :-)
Callie Masters That gave me a laugh 😂
Emmy got hers at Wholefoods, often called Wholepaycheck. They are often very high-priced. I seldom go there, too expensive for me. I might perhaps, in search of something hard to find.
Its cheap on my country. A dollar per piece.
syoma fukasaku same. It only costs less than $1/kg in my country.
It is hard times, at least in Puerto RIco where you can grow a tree and have them fresh from your backyard. It doesn't grow sour here.
I lived in Jamaica for many years, and soursop juice is one of my favorite things ever. Buying from the juice man in an empty rum bottle on the beach. 🤤
It looks like an evil avocado
Its a punk avocado lol
It's good for cancer
😂
lol
But it tastes awesome.
In Barbados we make something called sour sop punch. It's made with sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk and you can add a little nutmeg and cinnamon if you want to. My grandmother used to make it for me..hers would be chunky which I lovedddddd. However, other people blend their own to make it super smooth..it's soooooo goood
Cherise Isabella I always hated soursop juice as a kid
Kellyof thecorn lol I personally thinks it's really good cause no one made it like my grandmother
I'm Haitian and we make something similar; we call it jus corossol or soursop juice. It was my favorite as a child.
Bell Lorde that sounds great☺
Unfortunately my grandmother never measured anything she cooks by faith but after watching her many times. I would say 1 large soursop..should be 4-5 cups of the pulp, 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, 2-3 cups of evaporated milk, nutmeg and/or cinnamon to taste. As much or as little as you like. As I said before some people blend there's but I like mine chunky with bits of the pulp in there...so she would make it a big bowl and just mash it together then transfer it into a jug and into the fridge. Hope you can try it and enjoy ☺
I'm from Guatemala and my great grandmother used to have a tree. Shw was from Belice but lived in the coast of Guatemala. I am from guatemala city so when I was little we used to go to visit and she would always have some Rice and Beans with chicken and sause which we always had with Fresco de Guanaba (Soursop juice with water and sugar, sort of like a soursop-ade). Great memories, she died in 2008.
Luis Delgado qepd
And this is how I learn how to say Guanábana in English. Thanks.
Always wanted to try but so hesitant about the price tag because i had no idea how to pick them!! I love cherimoya and i imagine they’re similar. So many sources online but dont know who to trust but youre always reliable 🤗😋
Hey Emmy, Soursop tastes so good and it's good to make a delicious ice cream too. You should try it! yeah. Good job! 👍😉👍💯💯
Jade Cummings was just going to say that soursop ice cream is incredible!
Jade Cummings that's a weird looking guanabana
Ulises Crespo yeah!
Jade Cummings I accidentally commented in here but yeah
Yes to the icecream!! 😋😋😋 Ya'll must be from the Caribbean!!
Can you please try a loquat they're so good and growing the seeds is easy and bee's love the flowers.?!
Bella Capulet ohh yes, loquats are amazing!
oh I love those, my grandparents have a big old loquat tree that's at least 20 years old and it's heaven when the fruits ripen
They are so good I bought 6 or 9 for $5 that comes in a plastic container
Yup bees love the flowers. They smell good to me too
Yessss loquats are one of my favorite fruits!
Growing up in the Caribbean I used to eat this all the time when it was in season it’s great as ice cream and smoothies.
For easier eating just pick up the wedge of fruit and bite into it instead of using a spoon. Then spit out the seeds like you would a watermelon! Cheers
Smaaart.
before even finishing the vid, luv the background!!! getting an Alton Brown/Good Eats vibe!!
but that's another show ;)
I was thinking that too :D
oh bother...
Like the hat?
can i secretly hope that she includes puppets in future vids?? or her next vid is in the basement and she too has a dungeon master!!
We also have those in Kenya, my grandparents have a small tree with these and they don't grow that often but when they do, heaven. Though ours are more heart shaped and bulkier and are best eaten and since the seeds are much bigger than the one you had we tend to eat the flesh from around the seeds and then put the seeds to be used elsewhere also it's much sweeter in taste and smoother in texture. It amazes me how the same fruit can grow so differently around the world.
This is one if the first fruits in fruity fruits that I have never ever heard of!
Emma Greenman that’s crazy! This is one of the few I actually know about. I grew up in the islands so that could be why
Your videos are always of the best quality. Love your content.
Thanks.👍
two of my favorite content creators on one channel. this is beautiful.😭😭

I'm on a bland diet for health reasons but I love to see people enjoy food thanks
Ron S Why ? Medical reasons?
yes medical reasons
Me too! I have severe acids reflux and having bland diet helps. But I love watching these types of videos!
yes they are enjoyable and i hope that your condiation is manageable
How does eating non bland food effect ANY health issues, spicy yeah for reflux but not non bland food...
I have two Soursop trees in my backyard, and I found two more tiny plants growing near the biggest one.
Soursop juice is great for people who are having stomach problems because it has a lot of fiber, it prevents osteoporosis because it's high in calcium, and because it's low on sugars you can safely drink it even if you have diabetes.
Emmy, I am so proud of u!! U have come a long way. U went from being shy in front of a camera and not saying much to being energetic in front of the cam and even adding character into ur shows!! I am so glad
In Trinidad we do all kinds of things with it. When I was little I had an uncontrollable asthma attack and none o my inhalers or meds were working... My nennie made a tea with soursop leaves for me and it was literally the only thing that worked. Soursop ice cream is my favorite! Soursop juice (Jamaica makes the best though, props to them) is incredible. And best of all it is a known and verified cancer fighter. My sister has melanoma and we swear she has kept it at bay for all these years because of her new diet... Which includes loads of soursop!
Carla Franco soursop leaf tea is my favourite!
Yeah, it's tastes so good. 😋 😃 💯
What does the soursop leaf tea taste like? Don't just say "good", describe it please? I love trying unusual teas, especially good medicinals. Thanks for mentioning it!
Onix Navarro where did I say that one island was better than the other? I said that Jamaica makes the best soursop juice... That's just my opinion and I meant no offense by it. I've had the milkshake y'all make in Puerto Rico it was so delicious :)
jbeargrr I didn't say it tasted good lol... It actually was pretty vile as I remember it. She made it for me as medicine so it was straight up leaves boiled in water, no honey, no sugar, just soursop leaves in water... Put me off soursop ice cream for a few months well ;) You can buy soursop leaf tea now that has peel and my favorite one comes naturally flavored. I don't know how to describe the flavor of soursop... Its not very sour but it does something to make your mouth pucker a bit. Its creamy and fragrant and almost perfumey. Its hard to nail the taste in words. You have to try it, you won't regret it! If you're wanting to use it for medicine I would source the leaves fresh and you want to bruise the leaves by smashing them a bit (just kind of crush them in your hand, not to break apart but just to smush) and then putting them in a pan with cold water and bringing to a boil and simmering until the water is like an olive green colour.
"Froooooty."
I've had soursop in a smoothie. One of those bottled ones from LaYogurt, and yeah, you described the taste perfectly! So if you ever procure another soursop, I highly suggest trying it in a smoothie.
Guyabano! Yum! I love it in shakes. Add some condensed milk and ice then blend it.
I'm Miami this is very popular. My Cuban friend said it helps with reducing tumours .
Those are delicious
In The Philippines we call in *Guyabano*
Oh man, I missed Fruity Fruits!
farijuana i miss your face
Scotty Haines wat. I don’t know you😅
@@farijuanah you still look good
@@scottyhaines4226 freak weirdo desperation is not flattering
@@alexjones28 neither is being a conspiracy theorist
So glad you love the soursop! We call it guyabano yun the Philippines and we enjoy it as a smoothie or juice. You gotta try it!
I’ve never heard of this fruit before, the fruit itself looks intimidating but once you explained the flavor and consistency I can say without a doubt I’m definitely down to try some.
In Guatemala people call them nonas for short but they are known as guanabana.The people make a delicious drink that is to die for, also the fruit grows incredibly large!
Jesse Orlando yes they do. Either we would go to central market in the city or fruit and vegetable truck would pass by and ring doorbell. I love it
theresa clement yes! Fruit grows like crazy everywhere except the city!
Jesse Orlando we had Nona's in escuintla! Feliz Domingo
Fruity intro is back! Yay!
I live in Southeast Asia (Singapore) and soursop is often consumed here as a refreshing drink! We have fresh soursop juice in a large glass with ice and big chunks of fruit (seeds and all!) floating around in the juice! They usually give you a straw and spoon to fully enjoy it. You can get them at most big hawker centres!
Also Soursop leaves make a great tea! My mom used it during chemo to help with the nausea and digestive pain.its really good for your gut.
I love Goya Soursop juice. It taste like the syrup in fruit cocktail cups. Not appetizing to look at but it's delicious!
We call that guyabano. Some people say it can cure cancer.
Chef Rafi's Awesome World It does have great health benefits and kills cancer cells.
definitely truth!!
I wish we had this in the UK and I could have got it for for my daughter, sadly I learnt about these wonderful fruits as a cure and CBD oils far too late and she passed at 8 yrs old in 2010
C. K. So sad. When my grandma had cancer she craved guyabano so much.
Here in Dominican Republic it's called guanabana 😂 i know, a strange name but it taste really sweet and a little sour...in my house it used to be a tree
I live on St John in the US Virgin Islands and the soursop fruit trees grow everywhere around here. I love getting one right off the tree, the challenge is getting to them before the birds do. We also have dragonfruit and sugar apples here. Another great fruit that grows wild here is tamarind. Have you had a chance to try that? If not, then be ready for a real pucker effect.
Soursop pulp is placed on sweetened shaved ice for dessert here in my country of Singapore. Its a fav way of eating this here in Asia. 😊
We call it guyabano in the Philippines.
Right? I was so confused because I thought soursop was a different fruit.
It came to us via Mexico; you can tell the similarities of guanabana and guyabano.
I was about to say that
Yum! That's known as the "zuurzak" in my family. We usually put it into fruity drinks, and even bake cake out of it :D
I love your facial expressions so much 😁😍 they give such insight on the food you are tasting
have you heard of the ice cream bean? i have no idea where you would be able to find it, but i think it would be an interesting addition to this series. they’re rare and expensive in the states, but if you ever find yourself in south america you should keep your eyes peeled for this fruit!
great work as always! 💛
Can you try a Pomelo? The big round green ones, which are very delicious
She did pomelo before but it was orange. Not green.
I believe that was an Ugli Fruit
Pomelos can be quite big, almost the size of a watermelon, but are much rounder in shape. It has a very different citrus flavor, depending on pomelo. Very delicious and refreshing un my opinion
Pineapple I LOVE pomelo. And they smell soooo beautiful
$15!!! You got ripped off! Next time go to a West Indian market...not sure what shops you have in your area.
Tricots Knits everyone is getting ripped off in life somehow
a whole foods lol
I’m Cuban and soursop (we call it guanabana) was a staple in my childhood. We find it prepared in the freezer section of most markets here in Miami. It’s also cheapest there. We take the frozen fruit and use in on juice or frozen treats like ice cream or dairy free paletas. We live in an area of Miami (Homestead) that has a huge Mexican population and the local paleta place has an amazing soursop popsicle.
If you liked the soursop and the custard apple, you would probably really like another member of the Annonaceae family, the pawpaw (Asimina triloba)! It's a North American native, and can be found from late August through early October, depending on latitude and varying from tree to tree. We're nearing the end of the season right now, but you could probably still get some from growers in New York or the Pacific Northwest!
Im addicted to Emmy once again lol. There is SOOOOO much drama in damn near every other “corner” of youtube rn 🤦🏾♂️
$15? God damn, they're like $2 here.
Lucky you.
Indeed, we get some for free from our estate as well, they grow in the wild there. I have to say I love your channel and I would be happy to send you some of our local snacks/chocolates since fresh fruits would spoil to oblivion on the trip, I'm in El Salvador; Do you have a PO Box I could send them to?
soursop is super healthy and delicious. I'm growing them now along with longan, lychee, dragon fruit, spanish lime and a few other things. so much fun
I'm Jamaican and the trees are a staple in most people's yards. The leaves make a great tea, used as a blood cleanse/cancer fighter. So u r so p should have more than a slight give to it. The softer the sweeter it is...with the tang. If you try it again...let it get soft first...which makes it easier to scoop out and eat.
Yayyyyy💖💚💛🖤💙💜💟 frooooty
Hey Emmy! Have you heard about the “worlds hottest ice cream“? Based out of Australia...
Some of my fondest childhood memories in Mexico are eating chilled soursop in the summer, when they are bursting with flavour and fragrance. Also soursop frozen treats are THE best
My mom used to make Soursop Ice cream for me all the time. We had a tree in our backyard. I remember them being softer in texture, sweet with the classic sour note. Thanks again for posting and bringing back some great memories! 😊
We call it Guyabano in the Philippines!
I'm one minute in and I thought to myself "white flesh? Guyabano!?" and it is!
It's so expensive. We have a tree in our province.
I remember when I was really younger and my mom used to force me to drink soursop juice and I always threw up,even hearing the name makes me shiver
Why were you forced to drink it? Health reasons? I drank a can of it recently (only about 12 oz) and felt nauseous afterward... not sure why
Soursop best served cold. When it’s nice and ripe, flesh will easily peel off of skin when pulled. Sweet and slightly sour and very delicious. I recommend pulling the flesh from the skin so nothing goes to waste. One of my favorite fruits and easily accessible in my island. Love your videos Emmy!
GUANABANA OMG I didn't know it's name in English lol but my heart knew what it was when I saw the thumbnail. We used to have a soursop tree in our house and it's amazing, it's one of my favorite fruits. You should try to blend it and make some juice, it's really refreshing and good too~ but take the seeds out before because they are very tough
This is called Graviola here in Brazil and wow... This one looks pretty small. I would say that here in Brazil we have graviolas 2x bigger.
I usually have graviola juice with a lot of ice, it's super refreshing. You can also blend the frozen pulp with sweetened condensed milk and it becomes almost like a mousse... It's great as a dessert!
Froooootyyyyy
They must be hard to transport, because yeah... a fresh one where I'm at costs twice what yours did, easily, but you can get dried chunks or frozen puree for dirt cheap, and both those things still pack a lot of that same taste. If you can get your mitts on puree, it's wonderful in desserts.
One of my favorites.... I always turn it into a smoothie, it becomes really creamy. They also say it has a lot of health benefits and even healing properties....
Wow,she actually burps....😂 Awesome 4:36
Pickled eggs, Emmy! Pickled eggs!
Writer T.J Stokes and pickled sausage!
Emmy, in Puerto Rico is call guanabana. If you put the pulp it in the blender with some water you can make a great juice/nectar which isn't so refreshing (add sugar if you need to). It makes great mimosas. Also the leaves of the tree are use to make tea for an upset stomach specially if you have the "runnies"😒. So it's also medicinal.
We paid $30 for the same size up in New Hampshire! So glad that you were able to try it, one of my favorites!!!
Sirsak 😁
I pronounce it as Sour-SOAP heh.
Hi! We used to have a soursop plant in our backyard in Dominican Republic, so I used to eat it very often as a kid. My mother also made soursop juice and it was delicious. But I haven’t had it in ages since it hard to find in the states. I can’t believe you paid $15 for that and we had it for free!
You know, I remember watching you back in 2011 and 2012 and I LOVING your videos! Its crazy how much time has gone by since then xx
We used to have a tree of guanábana right next to the house in Puerto Rico. We'd be watching TV and hear a loud "plop" outside the window and we'd all go running outside to get the freshly fallen super ripe soursop. It was always delicious.
I love Guyabano! (It has many names) You got a good one👍🏼 I had one recently that was definitely harvested too early because it was dry & crunchy. Yours was perfect!
In the Cook Islands we call this katara'apa. We have several trees growing around my parents yard and it's the best frozen for smoothies or drinks. I've mixed the juice with milk which tastes sour like drinkable yoghurt. Yum!
Fun fact Soursop makes you sleepy, the leaves we boil it for a mild sedative helps you relax! We make punches, ice cream, ice lollies so good
Down here in Peru, soursop (guanábana) is pretty popular. You can find soursop ice cream, soursop cakes, soursop ganache, soursop syrup, and even a combination of soursop with manjarblanco (dulce de leche)!
I personally don’t like it that much, but I found interesting that I never thought of its taste as floral before you mentioned it. And yeah, the aftertaste it gives you is very floral, and the smell when it is combined with sugar (specially soursop syrup and soursop ganache) is just amazing, very fragrant.
If you ever have the chance of tasting soursop in any of this ways, you must go for it!
In Puerto Rico we call them guanabana... My grandmother used to take them and put them in the blender and then put them in ice cube trays and we would eat them on hot days which is everyday in Puerto Rico. You have to try it this way it's it's a wonderful gift to give to your kids.
@emmymadeinjapan In Puerto Rico we use the leaves as a treatment for cancer. Apparently it works as some sort of chemotherapy. The fruit is also very refreshing for those who are ongoing either chemo or radio. It’s also good for stomach conditions and plain delicious in juice and limber
I am totally hooked on soursop drink that i find in cans in international markets in the U.S., and in regular food markets in Mexico and the Caribbean. I would love to try fresh ones now that I have seen them here. Thanks, Emmy!
When I worked at the supermarket in my local chinatown we employees were given holiday candy trays as a gift (they sold poorly lol). I LOVED the candy soursop! It was my favorite on the tray. The candies were portions of sugar-saturated soursop with a seed in the middle and wrapped in plastic. I liked them because even though they were CRAZY sweet the sourness made it pleasant -- unlike the candy custard apple which was sickly sweet.
I L o v e how Emmy describes food with her calm voice!!!
I live in Australia and I just bought a house with a soursop tree. It has one that is almost ready but it is loaded with fruit. I can’t wait to try it.
I would like for you to try a sprouted, or flowered, coconut. From what I gather you eat the coconut in its final stage before it begins to grow into a tree. The hollow inside forms this fluffy cotton candy like stuff. I would LOVE to hear your thoughts about it.
I'm glad you got to taste it, the way you had it it's still a bit green, once it's at its peak you'll love it even more
It also grows in Jamaica where my family is from, its so good in a juice form with sweetened condensed milk and spices like nutmeg cloves etc
It is called graviola in Brazil. Great with milk to make a shake. The seeds are also suppose to help ride the body of worms/intestinal parasites.
I can always remember picking this back home. When it’s ripe from the tree it’s pretty easy to get the white flesh. It’s soft and nice. My grandma makes juice with it using condensed milk and tinned carnation and the freezes the juice . The it turns into this creamy goodness on a hot day. So gud
I have found the frozen pulp at my local Walmart. I just blend mine with water, plain milk or cold coconut milk and make myself a smoothie....I add chia from time to time... I would also google the medicinal properties of this fruit! Yum!
Yay!!! Been waiting awhile for another fruity fruit video! This really made my day!
This Soursop fruit is popular in Vietnam especially it is used for the soursop smoothie 'sinh to Mang Cau' . Just add soursop meat minus the seeds. Add condensed milk and some sugar, add ice and blend it up. Delicious!
Guanabana in Spanish. It is quite common in the Dominican Republic. It is used to make Champola, a smoothie that is made with evaporated milk, soursop and served cold.
Hi Emmy, I love your Fruity Fruits series.
One day, if you haven't already, you should definitely try the *Cherimoya* - so unexpectedly good!
_Just be careful not to eat the seeds as I've heard they're toxic once you crack them!_
I have 2 soursop trees in my backyard and just harvested my first 5 fruit. My exwife is from Colombia she introduced the fruit to me. I have lived in south Florida for 16 years so I have learned to eat many new fruits that are not common in the USA grocery store. I have just learn that a fruit in the same family a tropical fruit is native to east cost. It's called pawpaw. North Americas forgotten fruit. George Washington's favorite
In Venezuela we take all the seeds out and we make a juice with either with water or Milk or even Vanilla icecream and make a shake , try it you will love it
I do make a soursop cake with the soursop icing.
I live in Jamaica, and we have a soursop tree in the backyard, we wait until it's so ripe that it begins to open on its own. And the most efficient way to remove seeds and get the flesh is using your hands.
soursop is also common in southeast asia (or at least Indonesia). i loved the as a smoothie a lot!, used to freeze the flesh and then blend it with a little addition of sugar! so yummy! and also i used to eat them like a watermelon, cut it in a quarter and just munch them and spit the seed.
I used to get soupsop shakes from Vietnamese restaurants as a kid, but I never thought about what soursop actually was. Great video!
We call this fruit "guanábana" here in the Dominican Republic. We blend it with milk to make kind of a smoothie named "champola" pretty flavorful and refreshing.
We usually eat that with our hands by pulling the seeds covered with the flesh of the fruit with your fingers. It's much more efficient as all the flesh gets pulled leaving you with pretty much just the skin of the fruit.
You're so edutaining. What I mean is, you educate us about all kinds of fruits and different foods, and you're entertaining. A++ always well done.
