No, papaya is not a citrus fruit. Citrus fruits are known for their fragrance and their juice contains a high quantity of citric acid, giving them a tart, sharp flavor. Examples of citrus fruits would be Oranges, grapefruits and lemons. The papaya is a tropical fruit and its taste has been compared to a cantaloupe or mango.
