Guava Nectar

Wash firm ripe guavas. Cut off stem and blossom ends. Slice the
guava into a large sauce pan. Add 2 cups water to 2 quarts of sliced
fruit. Cover and cook until soft. Put this through a sieve to remove
seeds. Add water until puree is thin enough to drink. Sweeten with
1/2 cup sugar to each quart of nectar.

Serve cold with equal parts of limeade or gingerale, or try it over
a scoop of vanilla ice milk in a tall glass.

To freez guava nectar, place in moisture-vapor proof containers,
allowing a 1-inch headspace for expansion. This will keep up to a
year at 0F.
