Thanks to Alex Kerr-Wilson’s love of soursop, we managed to put this heavenly sweet together in London. Soursop or guanabana is a large prickly green fruit with pulpy white flesh and black seeds. It is too sour to be eaten plain and the pulp is very chewy so squeezing it through a sieve is the way to collect the thick juice, which can then be sweetened and used for flavouring drinks, ice cream or dessert, such as this one.
