Jack Fruit Drink

Sometimes I just wanted a drink that come right out of can. This is a jack fruit or in bahasa we say Nangka. This jack fruit is drench in sweet syrup and imported from Thailand. I bought this can of sweet jack fruit from the Asian store near to my house.
I took out about 3 big chunk of jack fruit and place it into my glass. Then I pour in some of the sweet juice. The rest I top the glass with some ice cubes and cold water. Give it a stir and walla! The sweet drink is ready.
I don't have liquor in my house. You could pour some of it into this sweet drink and create a nice cocktail drink. You could also add club soda. I store the rest of the jack fruit into a plastic container in the refrigerator. If you keep it in the can, the juice will turn sour. Metal is not a good medium to be left in the juice for a long time.

  2. Dhill, this jackfriut is very Sweet. It sits in syrup. I see some Asian here eat the fruit with steamed glutinous rice.

  5. Dhill, you like steamed glutinous rice. Then you can try serve it with jackfruit sweet and creamy sauce. I think the food is popular among Viatnamese.
