Growing up Puerto Rican, I remember eating pastelillos de guayaba (guava turnovers) made with homemade guava jam, and guava paste with queso blanco or queso de bola (gouda cheese). Guava juice was also a favorite as well as eating fresh guavas. As an adult, I enjoy anything guava-flavored. It brings me back to my childhood days.
Where to find pink guava?
Pink guavas can be found at Hispanic supermarkets and grocery stores but white guavas are more accessible, for some reason.
Pink pineapples are a bit more difficult to find in-store. I received my pink guava and pink pineapple from Tropical Fruit Box. Use my code CURLSNPEARLSSSEATS to save $10 on your order!
Ingredients for making a guava margarita:
- Pink guava
- Pink pineapple
- Tequila blanco
- Triple sec
- Lime juice
I love using my Ninja Foodi Power Blender for making juice, smoothies, dough, even masa for pasteles and alcapurrias! It’s my favorite kitchen appliance ever!
I blend the juice on the lowest setting so that the seeds don’t get pulverized. Then I use a nut milk bag or mesh strainer to strain the juice. Store the juice in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
What can I substitute for pink guava?
If you can’t find fresh pink guavas use guava nectar or frozen guava pulp instead. Regular, fresh, or frozen pineapple can be used as well. Other tropical fruits that work well in this recipe are passion fruit, mango and papaya.
How to make rimming sugar?
I love making rimming sugar at home. I use organic cane sugar and I add ingredients like dried rose petals, freeze-dried strawberries, and lime or orange zest to make the prettiest rimming sugar. Use honey and a basting brush to paint your glass before dipping in the sugar mixture.
Can I make this a mocktail?
Yes, just omit the alcohol to turn this drink into a gorgeous mocktail. My kids love the pink guava pineapple juice. Sometimes I rim my daughter’s cup with the floral rimming sugar because she’s fancy! It’s a great drink option for children and expecting mamas!
