Pawpaw, or papaya, blends into one of the mellowest smoothies you can order. Soft orange, gently sweet, with a musky perfume that is unmistakable once you know it.
Texture is where pawpaw wins. The fruit is naturally creamy, so it comes out smooth and full-bodied without needing anything to thicken it, and the flavour stays quiet rather than loud. That makes it easy to drink slowly.
It sits well after a rich or peppery plate, and it is a familiar taste for anyone who grew up with a pawpaw tree in the compound back home.
Order a pawpaw smoothie online for delivery or pickup in Kigali, or have it fresh at our Remera tables with Jollof Bistro.
