Green Smoothie Of The Day: Pink Dragon and Soursop Coconut Lassi
Good morning fellow steemians. Since pink dragon fruits are in season it's another beautiful pink or purple drink with my beloved soursop. If you never had soursop than you should try it one day if you can get your hands on it. It tastes like custard apple but better and with fewer seeds.
Some say it's a combination of strawberry and pineapple with a hint of citrus. Though I'm not sure about the explanation, I love strawberries and pineapple, so that might be the reason for soursop being my favorite tropical fruit.
And it's so good for you. Thanks to its amazing nutrient content, soursop possess some of the most impressive health benefits. These include killing off parasites, reducing inflammation, improving respiratory conditions, sedating the body and mind, healing the skin, treating certain kinds of cancer, boosting the immune system, soothing the stomach, and relieving pain.
I'm ready for another beautiful day at my favorite spot! Good friends are everything when you move away from family. Can't wait to move back to Kampot in just a few months. How I missed these little cheeky monkeys.

Thank you. it is very useful . There are many vitamins.
My pleasure! I hope you like it too ;)
Yes, I'd like to lose some weight
Yummmm, I love Soursop. Our tree should bare its first fruits next season hopefully. It has grown a ton this year. It is actually our healthiest fruit tree along with a pink Guava that has taken over also lol.
You are so lucky to have a tree. How long did it take to grow one and get some fruits? Might plant a few too when we move in few months. Ohh pink guava. another amazing fruit. Thanks for your comment @healthyrecipe
Our Soursop is only a year old and it is over 7 feet tall and really bushy with vivrant leaves. It has not had fruits yet but I think it should be able to have a couple on next season by how big it is. Usually they take 2-3 years to bare fruits and they grow really big. We also have lots of mango trees that are young, cahsews and avocados. I will post a picture of the Soursop tree today or tomorrow so u can see it. Biggest Soursop I have ever seen was in a fruit market in Costa Rica back in 2007 lol. It actually filled a big 8 quart cooking pot. I put it in the fridge and ate some every morning for a week while I was there. So good 😊
Wow didn't know they grow that fast. Thanks for sharing ;)
wow - such great pictures! @amy-goodrich
