Custard Apple Smoothie Recipe

This custard apple smoothie (Sitaphal shake) is a deliciously creamy, velvety, and naturally sweet drink that’s perfect for refreshing mornings and warm afternoons. Made with ripe custard apple pulp, yogurt or chilled milk, and a delicate touch of honey, it provides a tropical taste experience rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and dietary fiber.

How to Deseed Custard Apples Easily

Deseeding custard apples can be tricky because the glossy black seeds cling tightly to the flesh. The easiest kitchen method:

• Colander Method: Scoop the pulp into a wide mesh colander set over a bowl. Use the back of a spoon to press the pulp against the mesh—the seeds will remain behind while smooth fruit puree collects in the bowl.
• Pulse Method: Place pulp in a blender and use the lowest “Pulse” setting for 2-3 short pulses to dislodge seeds without crushing them, then pick them out with a fork.
