I found this last feijoa season on fb courtesy of the Canterbury Herb Society. I did try it & it’s nice (& super easy). I’m no longer on fb so figured I’d share it here. Folk may like to try it with all the feijoas everywhere now. Not a fan of white sugar I used raw organic…copied anyway, straight from the CHS post …

Don’t waste those FEIJOA SKINS, they contain so many really valuable vitamins and minerals and are approximately half the weight of the Feijoa.

Here’s a really easy RECIPE for FEIJOA FIZZ and such cool way to make the most of them.

Ingredients:

Feijoa skins chopped

2 tbsp white sugar

1 tbsp brown sugar

water

Method:

Place feijoa skins in a 1L container and add white sugar and fill up with water then cover.

Leave this for about two days till it begins to be a bit fizzy.

Throw away the skins and pour into a 1L bottle with 1T brown sugar and fill up with water. Leave in a warm place for one day. Then refrigerate.
