This is my 3rd attempt to consume papaya, the first two times were whole fruit bites. One bite each time, and I couldn't handle it. The fruit is beautiful, but the smell and initial flavor are really hard to get over. I could still smell the papaya smell and got hit with the papaya flavor, but after the first few swigs, I began to enjoy it. It was a little too syrupy for me, so I will cut the sugar in half the next time I make this. Thank you!

    This was lovely! I used mexican papaya and I found that there was not that cloying flavor I usually dislike about papaya. I knew it would work though as I have had papaya juiced with fresh oranges and that completely eliminates that funky flavor.

    Nice drink! I used a juicer so I wasn't sure that I really needed to use the blender or not. But I did since the directions said to do so. SO since I was at the blender, I also added some frozen strawberries since I didn't want to use up all the cold water in the house. My family liked it (toddler too)! I used splenda instead of real sugar but I still may reduce the sugar amount next time since I have a toddler who likes juice. Thanks.
