TIPS

  • Use frozen papaya or banana slices for a thicker, colder smoothie without ice.
  • Pre-cut the papaya the night before to save time in the morning.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding a teaspoon of honey or agave syrup if desired.

VARIATIONS

  • Add a handful of spinach for an extra nutrient boost without altering the tropical flavour.
  • Substitute coconut milk with almond milk or oat milk for a different twist.
  • Include a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for added fibre and omega-3 fatty acids.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge: Store any leftover smoothie in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking.
  • Freezer: Pour the smoothie into ice cube trays and freeze. Blend the cubes with coconut milk later for a quick, refreshing drink.
