Notes

*Papaya Prep: To use papaya, first skin and then slice off the ends. Cut it lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, and chop.
*Consider saving a few seeds to add to your smoothie for an extra nutrient boost, as they're rich in anti-inflammatory properties.
*Frozen Fruit: Using frozen pineapple and mango is best for a frosty consistency to your smoothie but also ensures it's cool and refreshing without diluting it with ice. For an even frostier consistency, consider freezing the chopped papaya chunks also!
*Add juice slowly to ensure just the right consistency you desire.
