🌿 What Is Soursop?
Soursop (also called Graviola, Guanabana, or Sour Sop) is a green, spiky-skinned tropical fruit with soft, white flesh inside. Its flavor is a mix of strawberry, pineapple, and citrus with a creamy texture—like nature’s sorbet!
Besides being delicious, it’s packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber.
