How to Make Guava Whip

  1. Combine chopped guavas, sugar, water, lime juice, and cinnamon (if using) in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce heat to low and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the guavas are very soft and have broken down.
  4. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
  5. Press the guava mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds or fibers. (Alternatively, use an immersion blender for a smoother consistency.)
  6. Let the guava puree cool completely.
  7. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled guava puree.
  8. Chill the guava whip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the whip to firm up.
  9. Serve chilled. Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprinkle of cinnamon (optional) if desired.
