Mananza de Agua / Water Apple
Syzygium aqueum
Native to South East Asian countries and to certain tropical regions of India.
Also known as watery rose apple or simply, rose apple.
These luscious water apple fruits have an intrinsically crunchy texture and are quite sweet in taste when ripe.
However, the unripe green water apple possesses a characteristically astringent flavour and hence is ideal for use in the preparation of pickles, curries and chutneys.
