1 tablespoon honey, or as needed

Papaya or strawberry slices (optional)
Fresh mint (optional)

In a blender container combine papaya, strawberries, LACTAID® Lactose-Free 2% Reduced Fat Protein Milk, and honey. Cover and blend until smooth.

Notes
Papaya Tips: Choose papayas that are partially yellow and feel slightly soft when pressed. The skin should be smooth and free from bruises or very soft spots. A firm, unripe papaya can be ripened at room temperature for 3 to 5 days until mostly yellow to yellowish orange in color. Store ripe papayas in a paper or plastic bag in refrigerator for up to 1 week.
