Tamarind is a really fancy and popular fruit. Kind of. Since Mexico it's been on the shelves of grocery stores as a soft drink. The tree is resistant and grows well in full sun. The fruit or pod is a legume, some five inches long and it has a hard, brown shell. The fruit has a fleshy, juicy pulp.
Its flavor is, how to put it, unique. It has a quite strong aroma, tastes acidic and mildly sweet. It's so acid that it's impossible to eat more than a handful at a time without damaging your mouth. But anyways, it's fine and produces a great soft drink.
