What is kamias?
Kamias is a highly acidic tropical fruit native to southeast Asia. Also known as bilimbi or tree sorrel, it is closely related to the starfruit (carambola).
Recipe Tip
- To make your shake, use ripe fruit as it lends the most flavor. Avoid underripe fruit or else it will taste flat and watery.
- Control your ice (very important). Use crushed ice for smoother blending. Don’t overload the blender—too much ice makes it watery. Better trick: freeze the fruit instead of adding too much ice.
- Too tangy to your liking? Add sugar syrup or honey to balance the taste.
