This is a delicious, refreshing, and simple Brazilian dessert. It does have some alcohol, but a non-alcoholic blackcurrant syrup could be substituted.

Ingredients

• 1 ripe papaya
• 1 scoop vanilla ice cream
• 1 tbsp blackcurrant liqueur
• 1 sprig of mint for decoration (optional)

1. Peel papaya and remove seeds. Cube the papaya.
2. Put papaya pieces in blender with ice cream and blackcurrant liqueur. Blend well until smooth.
3. Pour into a small bowl and decorate with mint.
