Overview

MD Beli Cream is a thick Sri Lankan fruit cream made from beli (bael or wood apple, Aegle marmelos) pulp, sugar and citric acid, sold in a 650 g can. It is the ready-made base for beli drink, the cooling, fragrant amber drink Sri Lankans enjoy chilled. Stir a spoonful into cold water, add ice and sweeten to taste. The manufacturer states it is thermally sterilised and contains no preservatives.

Storage & serving

Spoon the cream into a glass, add cold water (or chilled milk), stir well until smooth and add ice. Start with a little cream and add more to taste; the amount depends on how strong you like it, as no fixed ratio is given by the manufacturer. Strain if you prefer a smooth drink. It also works as a topping for ice cream, and as a spread or filling.

What it is

The soft pulp of the beli fruit, cooked with sugar and sharpened with a little citric acid into a thick, jam-like cream with a floral, slightly smoky-sweet flavour. Beli drink is a traditional Sri Lankan refreshment and the fruit is also valued in Ayurvedic tradition; Taprovan makes no health claims for this product.

Serving ideas

Chilled beli drink on a hot day; beli milkshake with cold milk; over vanilla ice cream or yoghurt; alongside a Sri Lankan tea-time snack.

FAQs

What is beli (bael) fruit?

Beli, also called bael or wood apple (Aegle marmelos), is a hard-shelled fruit with fragrant orange pulp, widely used in Sri Lanka and India for drinks and sweets.

How do I make beli drink?

Stir a spoonful or two of the cream into a glass of cold water, add ice and sugar if needed. Add more cream for a stronger drink, and use chilled milk for a creamier version.

Does it contain preservatives?

The manufacturer states it is thermally sterilised with no preservatives. The listed ingredients are beli pulp, sugar and citric acid.

Is it a ready-to-drink beverage?

No. It is a thick fruit cream concentrate that you dilute with water or milk before drinking.

How long does an opened can keep?

Move the unused cream to a covered non-metal container, refrigerate and use promptly. Check the date on the can, and discard it if you see mould or notice an off smell.
