3. Do not grind too finely, as this will also grind the seeds and the juice will become fine and sandy.

4. Pour the pulp into a juice strainer placed over a bowl. It can also be strained through a muslin cloth to remove any seed particles.

5. Stir the pulp with a spoon so that it is smooth in the bowl.

6. Collect the pulp without the seeds.

7. Now add 1 cup of cold water. Stir the mixture. The more water you add, the more liquid the guava juice will be. You can also add lemon juice to give it a tangy taste.

8. Add 3 tablespoons of sugar. The amount of sugar should be adapted to your taste and to the sweetness of the guava.

9. Stir again until the sugar is dissolved.

10. Pour the juice into a glass and serve the guava juice immediately.
