Refreshing Watermelon Lime Smoothie

Refreshing Watermelon Lime Smoothie

Prep time: 5 minutes | Servings: 2

Ingredients

Ingredient Amount Notes
Frozen Watermelon 3 cups Cubed and frozen for best texture
Fresh Lime Juice 1-2 tbsp Adjust based on your preferred tartness
Greek Yogurt 1/2 cup Gives it that creamy, opaque look
Honey or Agave 1 tsp Optional, depending on fruit sweetness
Fresh Mint 3-4 leaves Optional, for an extra cooling effect

Instructions

  1. Prep the Fruit: If you haven’t already, cube your watermelon and freeze it for at least 2 hours. Using frozen fruit instead of ice keeps the flavor from getting watered down.

  2. Combine: Place the frozen watermelon, lime juice, yogurt, and sweetener into a high-speed blender.

  3. Blend: Start on a low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.

  4. Adjust: If it’s too thick, add a splash of water or coconut water. If it’s too thin, add a few more frozen watermelon chunks.

  5. Serve: Pour into tall glasses (like the ones in your photo!) and garnish with a fresh lime wedge or a small slice of watermelon.


Pro Tips for Success

  • The Seeds: If your watermelon has black seeds, be sure to remove them before freezing. Small white seeds are usually fine to blend.

  • Make it Dairy-Free: You can swap the Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt or a splash of coconut milk for a tropical twist.
