A nourishing, bright smoothie with the goodness of papaya, orange and turmeric that instantly cools you and fortifies you with essential vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants.
You will need:
Papaya - 1 medium-sized, very ripe
Orange juice - 1 cup, freshly squeezed
Turmeric powder - ¼ tsp
Honey - use as sweetener, if needed
Mint leaves - a few, to garnish
How to:
Peel the papaya, remove seeds and cut into chunks. Blend papaya along with orange juice and turmeric powder to a thick but drinkable consistency. Use more orange juice or water to thin it if necessary. Taste and sweeten with honey if needed.
Pour into tall glasses, garnish with mint leaves and serve chilled.
Notes:
1. Use a well-ripened papaya and you may not need any sweetener at all. 2. Pour the smoothie into jars with tight-fitting lids to make great on-the-go beverages.
