Refreshing Watermelon Smoothie
How to Make a Cool Watermelon Smoothie Perfect for Summer
Here’s a recipe for a cool and refreshing watermelon smoothie that will beat the summer heat. It’s a must-try during the watermelon season! Perfect as a healthy snack for kids or a delightful drink for guests.
Ingredients- 1 cup cubed ripe watermelon
- 1 pinch of salt (enhances sweetness)
- 1 Tbsp honey (adjust to watermelon’s sweetness)
- Ice cubes, as needed
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, cut the watermelon into bite-sized cubes (about 2-3 cm). Place 1 cup of these watermelon cubes generously into your blender.
Step 2
Next, add a pinch of salt over the watermelon cubes. This small amount of salt surprisingly enhances the watermelon’s natural sweetness, making the smoothie even more delightful.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to add a touch of sweetness with honey. Add about 1 tablespoon of honey. If your watermelon is already very sweet, feel free to reduce the amount of honey or omit it entirely. It’s best to taste your watermelon and adjust accordingly.
Step 4
Fill the blender with ice cubes as needed for that perfect frosty chill. The amount of ice will determine the smoothie’s consistency, so adjust it to your preference. More ice will result in a thicker, colder smoothie.
Step 5
Secure the lid on your blender and blend until all the ingredients are smooth and creamy. Ensure it’s blended thoroughly to achieve a lump-free consistency.
Step 6
Pour the smoothly blended watermelon smoothie into a chilled glass. Your refreshing watermelon smoothie is ready to help you quench your thirst on a hot summer day!
