Yummy! My mum always makes this for us back then too, she adds peak milk to it, it's quite delicious and healthy, very good for the body and very good for pregnant women too. Funny enough I wrote about it on my blog yesterday.

ReplyDeleteNice! I notice you didn't add any sweetener. How do you make it taste sweet? - www.mochaandfemme.com
ReplyDeleteI THINK the pineapple would serve as the sweetener.
DeleteThe pineapple is the sweetener...makes it very sweet depending on how ripe and sweet the pineapple is
