Jugo de papaya con limón (Papaya Juice with Lime)

Papayas are becoming more popular fruit everyday now. With the arrival of smaller Hawaiian papaya to America, it is now easier to buy and use because its size makes it more practical. In Colombia, our native papayas are the large ones believed to have come from Mexico. You can use either for this recipe; they work great with lime juice. Both kinds are great with lime juice.
