Tropical Fruit Juice
Monday, June 30, 2003 - Santa Marta
We spent the day at another populous beach skin diving. This time Playa Blanca we were able to reach by taking a boat directly from the beachfront where we are staying. Once again there were throngs of people suffocating the beach as all the folk from Bogotá and other cities enjoyed their last day of vacation.
Today I was able to round off my tour of delicious tropical fruit juices. On this trip I have had opportunity to enjoy Mora[1], Guanabana, Lulo, Maracuya, Nisperes, Zapote and of course fresh Orange Juice.
1 = Colombian blackberries are smaller and have a sharper taste

I could relate some of my personal experiences and tastes but you will do much better with some web searches. Just go to http://www.google.com and search for "Colombia Food" and see what you get. I took a look at the results and found a few pages that are good introductions:
http://www.iexplore.com/dmap/Colombia/Dining
Has an excellent article that mentions a lot of the typical dishes.
http://www.colombiatimes.com/s/colombia/food_index.html
and
http://www.bogota-dc.com/food/bog-rec.htm
have recipes
http://gosouthamerica.about.com/cs/colombia/a/CulrecipeCol.htm

You can also try other searches. I tried "Colombia Fruit" and did not get anything terribly interesting.
