Fresh, Fresher, Watermelon Smoothie

Beat the summer heat with a revitalizing frozen watermelon and strawberry yogurt smoothie. This refreshing beverage combines the natural sweetness of juicy watermelon, the vibrant flavors of ripe strawberries, and the creaminess of greek yogurt. With its frosty texture and burst of fruity goodness, this smoothie is the ultimate summer companion.

Watermelon is the refreshing star to this summer smoothie

Frozen watermelon takes center stage in this smoothie, providing a refreshing and hydrating base. Its natural sweetness and high water content make it the perfect ingredient to beat the summer heat. By freezing the watermelon chunks in advance, you create a slushy texture that adds a delightful chill to every sip. Frozen strawberries naturally enhance the sweet flavours and colours. This watermelon smoothie is loaded with vitamins and natural antioxidants.

Creamy Greek yogurt provides a luscious texture to the smoothie while imparting a pleasant tanginess. You can replace it with any other yoghurt, including as plant-based, but we recommend using a high fat one to enrich the flavours. Almond milk, or other milk of choice, helps adjust the texture to your liking!

This watermelon smoothie only takes a few second to make

Creating this watermelon strawberry yogurt smoothie is as simple as combining the frozen watermelon, strawberries, and yogurt in a blender and blending until smooth. For added sweetness, you can drizzle a touch of honey or maple syrup.

You could also skip the freezing process for a more liquid beverage. Since discovering this drink, we always keep some frozen strawberries and watermelon in the fridge to whip it up whenever we’re in the mood.
