The most common recipe for papaya leaf juice.
Use seven medium size papaya leaves - not very old ones, and
not too young. The leaves should be washed thoroughly and
partly dried. Cut them up like cabbage and put them in a
saucepan together with 2 litres of water.
Bring the water and leaves to the boil and simmer (without a lid)
until the water is reduced by half.
Strain the liquid and bottle in glass containers.
a. The concentrate will keep in the refrigerator for three to four
days. If it becomes cloudy it should be discarded.
b. For Kombucha brewing the concentrate is mixed together with
green tea or other medicinal teas to one's needs.
Kombucha fermentation conserves the properties of the papaya
leaves in a natural way.
