The new super-food soursop
or guanabana now comes in glass. This is significant because until recently the
only choice was frozen, sugar added products. “No one has it like this,” said
Alan Melillo of Grin Real Nature GFruit, lifting up a glass bottle, from the
shelf behind him, at the 18th Americas Food & Beverage Show in
Miami Beach, last year.

His product is
preservative-free, low pasteurized, vegan, GMO-free, gluten-free and
sugar-free.
GFruit packs the soursop
with its seeds to extend its freshness. “Keeping the authenticity of the stuff
is very important to us,” Melillo said with a smile, adding that soursop
bruises easily.
The low pasteurization
method ensures the fruit retains as many of its health benefits as possible like
vitamin C & B, Thiamin and Riboflavin.
And in keeping with the idea
of benefits, “Growers are part of the company. They are shareholders,” said
Melillo.
Soursop has a delicious tart yet sweet
flavor similar to pineapple mixed with a slight bit of musk.
