Delicious Sri Lankan wood apple juice recipe – By Malsha – eLanka

Delicious Sri Lankan wood apple juice recipe - By Malsha - eLanka

Wood apple juice, also known as “Diwul Kiri” or “Velidodang Juice” in Sri Lanka, is a popular and refreshing drink made from the pulp of the wood apple fruit. The juice has a unique, tangy flavor that is both sweet and slightly sour. Here’s a simple recipe to make wood apple juice at home:

Ingredients:

  • 1 ripe wood apple
  • 2-3 tablespoons of jaggery or sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup of water (adjust to desired consistency)
  • A pinch of salt (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional)
  • 1/2 cup of fresh coconut milk (optional, for a creamy texture)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Wood Apple:
    • Wash the wood apple thoroughly to remove any dirt.
    • Crack open the hard shell of the wood apple by tapping it with a heavy object, like a rolling pin or a hammer.
    • Scoop out the sticky, brown pulp from the inside of the fruit using a spoon.
  2. Mix the Pulp:
    • Place the wood apple pulp in a bowl and add the jaggery or sugar. The amount of sweetener can be adjusted based on the tartness of the pulp and your preference.
    • Add a pinch of salt to balance the flavors (optional).
  3. Blend the Ingredients:
    • Transfer the pulp mixture to a blender. Add 1 cup of water to the blender to dilute the mixture.
    • Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and well combined.
  4. Strain the Juice:
    • Pour the blended mixture through a strainer or a cheesecloth into a bowl to remove the seeds and fibers. Press down with a spoon to extract as much juice as possible.
    • If the juice is too thick, you can add a little more water to achieve your desired consistency.
  5. Add Coconut Milk (Optional):
    • For a creamier texture and richer flavor, add about 1/2 cup of fresh coconut milk to the strained juice and mix well.
  6. Serve:
    • Pour the wood apple juice into glasses. Add ice cubes if you prefer a chilled drink.
    • Garnish with a slice of lime or a sprig of mint if desired.
  7. Enjoy:
    • Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing, tangy, and healthy Sri Lankan drink!

Tips:

  • Make sure to use a ripe wood apple, as unripe fruit can be very sour.
  • Adjust the amount of sugar or jaggery based on the sweetness of the fruit and your personal preference.
  • Adding coconut milk is optional, but it gives the juice a unique, creamy flavor that complements the tanginess of the wood apple.

Enjoy making this delicious Sri Lankan wood apple juice at home!
