This simple delightful recipe is as easy as it is flexible: dont have mangoes? Add ripe peaches. Dont like papaya? Add some melon. It is just delightful. I add some pineapple occasionally for an extra zing! And, of course, when I make it for the kids, I nix the rum
Papaya, Mango, Basil Shooters
6 servings
2 super ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
1 small ripe papaya, peeled and diced
1 cup coconut milk
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons coconut rum
1 tablespoon julienned fresh basil leaves for garnish
Blend all the ingredients except the garnish. Chill for at least two hours. Place in shooter glasses, Garish with basil leaves and serve.
Thank you to Reem Rizvi for shooting this photo for me.
Nice recipe Monica! Will have to try it without the rum since we do not drink either
this sounds cool!!..a drink with a twist! I’ll defi make it on this weekend.
Thanks..
Sounds delicious! Thanks, Monica. I think I’ll try it with pineapple and watermelon since I’m allergic to mango. Sad but true. 😉
