Jackfruit is a fruit grown in Asian countries like India, Nepal, Malaysia and Thailand. This fruit can also be found in the cuisines of Brazil and Jamaica, where you'll find recipes like syrup, jackfruit ice cream with avocado, crystallized jackfruit with sugar and many more. In my local market I get it frozen and other markets it can be found canned or fresh. The flesh color can vary from deep yellow to a very faint almost white yellow. This fruit has a very tropical flavor that goes well with fresh water drinks like this jackfruit recipe I'm sharing with you today. Enjoy! MORE + LESS -
