Ingredients:
1 medium ripe papaya, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1 cup chilled milk (dairy or plant-based)
1/2 cup plain yogurt or vanilla yogurt
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
A pinch of ground cinnamon (optional)
Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker shake)
Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
A few papaya slices (for garnish)
Chia seeds (for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the Papaya: Start by peeling the papaya, removing the seeds, and chopping it into small cubes. Make sure the papaya is ripe for the best flavor and sweetness.
Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the chopped papaya, chilled milk, yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract if using. Add a pinch of ground cinnamon if you like a hint of spice in your milkshake.
Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture until it is smooth and creamy. If you prefer a thicker milkshake, you can add a few ice cubes and blend again until the ice is crushed and incorporated.
Taste and Adjust: Taste the milkshake and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more honey or maple syrup. You can also adjust the consistency by adding more milk if it's too thick.
Serve: Pour the papaya milkshake into tall glasses. If desired, top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle some chia seeds on top for added texture and nutrition.
Garnish: Add a few slices of papaya as a garnish on the rim of the glass for a decorative touch.
Enjoy: Serve the milkshake immediately while it's cold and refreshing. This papaya milkshake makes for a perfect breakfast drink or a healthy snack.
Tips:
For a dairy-free version, use almond milk or coconut milk and skip the yogurt, or use a plant-based yogurt.
You can also add a banana to the blend for extra creaminess and flavor.
This papaya milkshake is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients, making it a great way to start your day or enjoy a healthy treat!
