got guanabana?

Each time I go the grocery, I like to try at least one new thing. This week, when I was buying Jumex juices, I spotted an unfamiliar one: Guanabana Nectar. It's a tropical fruit with a hard-to-describe flavor .. kinda like pineapple, kinda like apples. Yum.

Just for grins, I bought pear nectar from both Jumex and Kerns. The Nutrition Facts label provides an interesting comparison:
