Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe fruit. Frozen fruit can also be used, but thaw it completely before using.
- If you don't have sweetened condensed milk, you can make your own by combining 1 cup of evaporated milk and 1 cup of sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture has thickened, about 5 minutes.
