Kamias juice shake is healthy, refreshing and easy to make.
Kamias or Bilimbi juice may sound sour and weird but it is one of the cleanest tasting fruit shakes i have ever tried. Kamias juice shake is super refreshing too!
My first time to taste it was some 20 years ago back when my mom was experimenting with her juicer. My recent encounters with kamias juice though was while devouring Zubuchon lechon!
So we visited an aunt over the weekend, and she gave me a bag of kamias among other fruits that grew in their backyard. I was just asking for malunggay leaves actually but she gave me various fruits and dahon dahons.
‘Mapipintog’ is how my mom would describe the shape of these kamias or bilimbi fruit.
Anyway, i immediately remembered the Zubuchon shake and decided to make some the following day.
