It's pretty typical in Mexican cuisine/ food to have fresh fruit drinks made of fruit blended with water and sugar then chilled. The consistency depends on how watered down or thick you want it.
Drinks like this are common also in other Spanish speaking countries. PLEASE if among Cubans don't call it "Agua de Papaya" call it "Agua de Frutabomba" or "Jugo de Frutabomba" because Papaya to some Cubans can mean a WOMANS PRIVATE so often times they call it "FRUTABOMBA" instead and to me "Frutabomba" sounds more catchy and nice. It translates to "fruit bomb" I don't know why.
So here goes the recipe quiet simple you can do it with strawberries, melon, watermelon, cantaloupe, mamey, peaches, bananas, WHATEVER you'd like just use common sense.
This is to simple don't know if worth writing the recipe but just in case.
