Dutch Eggplant (Solanum betaceum) Juice
Today, one more time I will share with you a simple drink from eggplant in my area. Namely Dutch eggplant, I'm not sure why the local people call it Dutch eggplant, whether it's because it comes from that country I'm not sure, but what is clear is that people call it Dutch eggplant. This eggplant has a sweet and sour taste like tomatoes, this eggplant is very good for the body. Dutch eggplant does not grow in my city, it comes from a city with high altitudes and cold temperatures. This eggplant there is very popular not only served as a drink, even the local people use it as a food ingredient such as chili sauce and others.
Dutch eggplant was given as a gift by my friend during the holiday yesterday. He brought this eggplant besides the jack bean yesterday. But today I just had time to process it into a delicious drink. I am no stranger to Dutch eggplant drinks, in the past I often ordered them at cafes or juice shops. It's just that the taste they serve is a bit excessive in my opinion, maybe because there's too much added sugar. Well today I will make dutch eggplant into a simple drink, which has natural sweetness from dates. You need to know that lately I've been reducing sugar a bit, but I've added just a little bit of sweetened condensed milk to stabilize the taste. Here let's prepare the drink!
Materials Needed
4 Dutch eggplants
2 tablespoons sweetened condensed
6 dates
1 glass of mineral water

Step 1
First, cut the eggplant into two parts and remove the seeds from the dates.
Step 2
Add the dates to the juice blender, then add all of them, no need to chop.

Step 6
Grind as finely as possible so that no seeds remain, then pour into a glass and add ice to taste.
Result
Dutch eggplant juice is ready to be enjoyed, I immediately enjoyed it after taking some pictures to show you. And you know, I really like it, the natural sweetness of the dates, as well as the sourness of the Dutch eggplant blends perfectly. This is delicious. I really like fruit that has a sweet and sour taste like this and this is very fresh, perfect to enjoy during the day after working all day like this.
If you have this fruit around you immediately make delicious juice like this, very refreshing on a hot afternoon like this. Especially now that the weather is so erratic that preparing food like this is really very appetizing.
