My neighbour has a guava tree but does not like guavas. She gives them to me and I cook them up in this simple syrup. Don't forget the tot of rum or other liquor, it seems to round off the flavour. This is delicious with vanilla ice cream.
About 1 dozen medium guavas, peeled and sliced
2 cups water
1 cup sugar
A tot of rum or other spirits
Slowly bring the water and sugar to the boil in a pan, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Add the guavas and the rum.
Gently poach until the fruit is soft.
