Soft papaya and fresh strawberries give this smoothie a coral colour and a gentle tropical taste. Coconut water keeps it light, a spoon of yoghurt makes it a little rounder.

Strawberry Papaya Smoothie with Coconut Water
Mild and fruity, honeyed papaya with fresh strawberry, light in body with a touch of creaminess.
Ripe papaya has a honeyed, mild flavour and a buttery texture that blends very smoothly. It is known as a good source of vitamin C, just like strawberries, which bring a fresher, more acidic note. Coconut water adds a light sweetness and natural minerals, and the yoghurt gives a hint of creaminess.
The smoothie is light and not too sweet, a good match for a warm morning or a break after sport.
Not with dairy yoghurt. Use a plant yoghurt and it is fully plant based.
Yes, frozen papaya or strawberries make the smoothie thicker and colder.
The skin turns mostly yellow orange and gives slightly under gentle pressure.
