Vegan Goji Tropical Smoothie

It's Saturday morning Crêpes fest! We have been enjoying these ever since I found that awesome gluten free recipe for them, see earlier posts. I decided to make some pretty smoothies to go with breakfast, as I had Goji berries and tropical fruit lying around, I did this summer recipe.
It's not too strong, I use papaya and Goji berries, both of which I don't particularly like but I know they're good for me so I use other ingredients to mask the taste. It was surprisingly delightful and went perfectly with our morning crêpes. So happy!
In case you have never heard of the Goji berry, here's what it looks like and under the pictures there's info and the recipe follows.



Apparently this is a wonder berry, it can:
-increase sexual function
-natural antidepressant
