My new word for the day. Also known as Soursop apparently.
I came across it, not in its fruit form, but in the new Schweppes Grenada drink which is described as "A delicate tonic with grapefruit and graviola flavours and a splash of aromatic bitters."
Yes, I know soft-drinks aren't the best for you, but I'm rather taken with Schweppes' new, at least new down here, range of "mixer drinks" -- though I tend to drink them on their own: Agrum [with various citrus flavours]; Ciata [with blood orange flavour]; Sueno [lychee, and a few others I can't recall]; and now Grenada. I've been trying one each week.
As I said, I know soft-drinks aren't good for you, but these are very refreshing. I think I may be addicted now.
