1. Prepare the Ingredients:
   Begin by chopping the plum rose into medium-sized pieces. Place them in a bowl and set them aside. Next, peel the skin off the ice apple (nongu) gently. As you remove the brown skin, ensure to collect the juices that are released. Set the juice aside in a separate bowl, and keep the fruit pulp in another bowl.

2. Blend the Juice:
   In a juicer or blender, combine the nongu juice, chopped plum rose, and sugar. Blend the mixture to a smooth, shake-like consistency. If needed, add a little water to adjust the thickness of the juice to your liking.

3. Add Lemon and Final Touches:
   Once the juice is blended, add the freshly squeezed lemon juice and stir to combine well. Taste the juice and adjust the sugar if needed to match your preference for sweetness.

4. Serve:
   Pour the Ice-Apple and Plum Rose Juice into a glass, and serve chilled or at room temperature. It’s a refreshing and healthy drink, perfect for quenching your thirst on hot summer days.

This vibrant juice is not only a treat for the senses but also offers the natural goodness of tropical fruits. Ideal as a light, nutritious breakfast or a refreshing afternoon drink, it pairs beautifully with a variety of meals or can be enjoyed on its own as a rejuvenating snack.
