Steps

  1. In a blender, combine the baobab fruit pulp and water. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
  2. Place a strainer or cheesecloth over a pitcher or jug, and pour the blended mixture through it. This will help remove any pulp or seeds, resulting in a smoother juice.
  3. Add the evaporated milk or condensed milk to the pitcher, along with the sugar and vitamin C powder (if using). Stir well until the sugar is dissolved and the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
  4. Refrigerate the bouye juice for at least 1 hour to chill and allow the flavors to meld together.
  5. Once chilled, give the juice a good stir before serving.
  6. Pour the juice into glasses filled with ice cubes.
  7. Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves for added freshness and aroma.
  8. Serve the bouye juice immediately and enjoy its refreshing and creamy goodness.
