We have this exotic fruit in my Island.They call it Grenadines. 2 kinds of taste : the seeds juice is like a syrup very tasty and refreshing. The pulp is to be blend with lemon juice and milk and sugar : very healthy. This fruit helps with insomnia and bad mood. My Grandma used to prepare a very tasty syrup with it too. The leaves are used for emotional distress for holistic bath.: The flowers are used for insomnia, epilepsy and psychiatric disorders.

Good morning. I have it at my backyard. I live in Darliston. Lennox Bigwoods. The juice is amazing. The Bible says the herbs is the healing of the nation

[@joycerennard749]

I became familiar with the fruit in 1968, a neighbor gave it to my mom who was told to add Condensed milk and cool it before eating. Some years later, I peeled off the outer skin, diced the flesh and stewed🍲 it with Natural Seasoning and Saltfish (Codfish). It was surprisingly very tasty 👌

[@myislandjamaica]

Salt fish? For real?

This is very popular in Trinidad and Tobago it’s called barbadine and in Tobago granadila it’s all over Trinidad and Tobago🇹🇹🇺🇸

[@myislandjamaica]

Really. 👍

[@marvalove5946]

Great fruit we in Trinidad call it Barberdine we make ice cream with it

[@triunegroup]

I grew up in Golden Springs, St. Andrew, Jamaica in the 70’s and had several Granadilla vines in our back yard. My Grandmother used to make ice cream with it during season on Sunday’s. It was a regular Sunday tradition for us at our home. It made a nice juice as well. To be honest with you though, I have not seen it much in Jamaica over the recent years. My Grandmother was from Above Rocks, St. Andrew, and knew of the fruit from there, so it probably goes back 60-100 years. These regions of Jamaica have a nice cooler temperature, with rolling hills, like the Castleton area.

[@myislandjamaica]

Cool. Thanks for sharing

[@lornahay8585]

Well done. Good

[@mariedeclercq4169]

In haiti is name is grenadine, you make juice With the seed and preserve with the skin very delicious

[@ministerjumpp361]

Interesting fruit. Thanks for the video. We all need to save & label some seeds - so many persons say they used to have/see it, but not for years since. Also, if the birds eat the fruit, it's usually good for us too. That helped me decide to try the noni fruit (duppy soursop) before its use became popular in Jamaica.

[@myislandjamaica]

quite so, makes sense. Thanks for that Minister.

[@rayonleslie8410]

It can make smoothie and juice to

[@myislandjamaica]

[@lanapaul5393]

We call it in Barbardine in St. Lucia. Ms Marline has a heart of gold...willing to share. it can be stewed in meats when green, can be used in drinks, and can also be eaten as a fruit.

[@dellriat9026]

This is so amazing because I never know that this unique , exotic fruit was still in existence , so it brought back memories , because as a kid growing up in the fifties there was this plant running on this vine making a bed on the cocoa and the coffee trees with these succulent fruit smelling so good . , My mother use to mix the pulp with milk and people always come and pick them on Sundays maybe to make drink but since the plant died I never seen it anywhere else, not even in the markets.
