Dominicana, Grosella de miel o Guaya en México, y Jurgay en Guatemala, las jugosas y dulces Quenepas son populares en toda América Latina y el Caribe.

La Quenepa es un delicioso y refrescante bocadillo que ofrece un divertido alivio del calor en los últimos meses de verano. Este fruto es muy especial y apreciado en Puerto Rico, y también ha conquistado el corazón del mundo.
