Chef tips
For a colder, thicker texture, chill the guava and apple beforehand. If your guava is very aromatic, slightly reduce the ginger so it does not overpower the drink.
Substitutions
You can replace the milk with oat drink and the plain yogurt with plant-based yogurt for a dairy-free version. Honey can be replaced with maple syrup.
