Papaya Milkshake

Papaya, a rich source of main essential healthy nutrients,digestive and medicinal properties.The fruit contains low in calories and no cholesterol,but a rich source of phyto-nutrients,minerals & vitamins.Papaya contains easily digestible pulp with soluble fiber that helps to have normal bowel movements; thereby reducing constipation.One of the richest source of Vitamin C(immune booster & anti inflammatory actions), Vitamin A(healthy mucus membrane & essential for vision), Vitamin B complex such as folic acid,riboflavin,thiamine & pyridoxine(essential for metabolism) and a rich source of potassium & calcium.My elder son has started using eye glasses since one year and not only him,there are many other kids too whom I know personally using glasses at early ages.And the best part of the story about preparing this shake is that he doesn't like to eat the ripe fruit just in slices,so always prepare it in shakes.This really tastes good if you drink it immediately.After reading so many healthy benefits,who will resist having such a healthy refreshing drink ??:-)



Ingredients
papaya 400g (puree to get 2 cups)
chilled milk 1 cup
sugar as per taste


Method
-Peel the skin,remove seeds and wash the papaya.Slice and blend in a blender without water.
-Add the chilled milk and sugar,blend again.Serve chilled immediately.

Servings ~ 3 glasses

NOTES
* Don't store the drink for long in refrigerator as it leaves a bitter taste at times.Serve immediately when blended.
