Ingredients
  

For the Juice

  • 4 cups Patilla - Watermelon Juice
  • 4 unit Orange
  • 4 unit Lemon

Chopped fruits:

  • 2 cups Pineapple
  • 4 cups Patilla or watermelon
  • 6 unit Orange
  • 2 cups Mandarin
  • 2 unit Camburs - bananas or plantains
  • 1 cup Water

Instructions
 

Extracting Patilla, Orange and Lemon Juices

  • Patilla (Watermelon): Start by cutting the patilla into small pieces and removing the seeds. Place the pieces in a blender and process until you get a smooth and homogeneous juice. You can strain the juice to make sure it is free of solid pieces.
  • Oranges and Lemons: Squeeze oranges and lemons to obtain fresh juice. If you wish, you can use a manual or electric juicer to make the process easier. Be sure to remove any seeds that may fall into the juice.

Preparing the Chopped Fruits

  • Pineapple: Peel the pineapple and cut it into small pieces or cubes. Remove the central core to obtain the juiciest and most tender part of the fruit.
  • Tangerine: Peel the mandarins and separate the segments. You can remove the membranes to make sure the segments are ready to use.
  • Plantain (cambur): Peel the plantains and cut them into thin slices. This will add a smooth and creamy texture to the Tizana.
  • Orange segments: Peel the oranges and carefully separate the segments, removing the skin and white membranes to obtain juicy pieces.
  • Chopped Watermelon: Use the previously reserved watermelon and cut it into small pieces. Be sure to remove the seeds.
  • Once all the fruits are prepared, place them in a large bowl and mix gently to distribute the flavors evenly. This step involves not only combining ingredients, but also incorporating care and attention into every movement to bring out the freshness and vibrant character of the fruits.
