Manzana de agua, Malay Apples, Rose Apples, Mountain Apples; these little pear-strawberry flavored gems go by all these names. I discovered them hanging high in the branches of a tree here at the Tiki Bar and enticed Ani to fetch them for me.
After washing and pitting, it will take hours to boil them down and I have added sugar, cinnamon and a little rum to help turn them into a lovely red jam.
I promise to let you know how it turns out...even if it is a flop and I end up feeding it to the chickens.
They love fruit of all kinds and anyway, it would be interesting to see how they like the rum...
