Notes

Serve soursop juice chilled over ice in tall glasses. Garnish with a slice of lime or a mint leaf for decoration. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days for best flavor. For a dairy-free option, substitute sweetened condensed milk with coconut condensed milk or use more sugar. You can also mix in other fruits like pineapple or mango for a tropical twist.
