Instructions
- Add 150 g diced ripe papaya and 1/2 cup coconut milk beverage to a blender, followed by 2 cups vanilla ice cream.
- Add 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract.
- Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20–30 seconds, until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
- Check consistency. Add 1 tablespoon coconut milk beverage at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin.
- Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with 2 tbsp whipped cream.
- Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.
Tips
- Use ripe, fragrant papaya for best flavor. If fresh papaya is unavailable, frozen papaya chunks work well too.
