Papaya Juice

Be the first to review!
There is nothing like a glass of Papaya Juice for a quick, homemade refresher. You put some ripe papaya in with cold water and a dash of cinnamon, then let the blender do its work to make it smooth and creamy in no time at all. A bit of lime juice can be thrown in if you want to brighten the flavour. We only put in honey or sugar when we are in the mood for something on the sweeter side. All in all it is a light, simple affair and the sort of easy fruit drink you can have without any fuss.
