    This Ethiopian spris is a layered fruit smoothie drink that's absolutely delicious. Made with fresh papaya, mango, and avocado. Without a doubt, one of the most refreshing and delicious drinks I've ever had! 

    Equipment

    • immersion blender

    Ingredients

    • 1/4 of papaya ripe
    • 1 mango ripe
    • 2 avocados Hass
    • 1 cup sugar split into 1/3 cups
    • 1 cup cold water split into 1/3 cups
    • 1 cup ice
    • 3 tbsp lime juice split into 3

    Instructions

    • Cut the papaya in half and then into 1/4. Chop the 1/4 section and set it aside.
    • Cut and chop the mangoes and avocadoes and set them aside.
    • Place each of the fruits into three large different cups to blend with an immersion blender.
    • Add 1/3 cup of sugar to each cup, 1/3 cup of cold water, 1/3 cup of ice, and 1 tablespoon of lime juice. Blend it until smooth. All three juices should be smooth and creamy.
    • To layer, start by spooning the papaya mixture into a glass. Next, spoon the avocado mixture, and finally, spoon the mango mixture on top. You do not want to simply pour the mixtures on top on top of each other as they can sometimes sink into each other.
    • Garnish with lime zest and mint if desired. Enjoy!
