Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh papaya peeled, seeded, and cubed
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger peeled and finely grated
  • 0.5 tsp ground turmeric high-quality powder
  • 1 cup coconut water chilled
  • 0.5 cup Greek yogurt plain, unsweetened or dairy-free alternative
  • 1 tbsp raw honey optional for sweetness
  • 1 tbsp flax seeds ground for better absorption
  • 1 cup ice cubes optional for thicker texture

Notes

For the best results, use a very ripe papaya (the skin should be mostly yellow or orange). You can swap coconut water for almond milk for a creamier profile. Store leftovers in an airtight jar for up to 24 hours, though separation is natural—just shake well before drinking.
