Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups frozen watermelon chunks
- 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
- 1/2 cup coconut water (or more, for thinner consistency)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 4 fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Place the frozen watermelon chunks, frozen strawberries, coconut water, and lime juice into your blender.
- Add the mint leaves, if you are using them for extra flavor.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
- If the smoothie is too thick, add coconut water one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired texture.
- Pour immediately into glasses and serve this healthy fruit smoothie right away.
Notes
- For a thicker, almost sorbet-like texture, use only frozen watermelon and skip the extra liquid initially.
- To make this a complete post workout hydration drink, add one scoop of your favorite vanilla or unflavored protein powder.
- This recipe is naturally vegan and dairy-free. For a creamier texture, you can substitute 1/4 cup of the coconut water with plain Greek yogurt (if not keeping it vegan).
