Ingredients:

  • 4 cups (600g) cubed, seedless watermelon, chilled
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh lime juice
  • 5-6 fresh mint leaves
  • 1/2 inch piece of fresh ginger (peeled)
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes (optional, for a thicker smoothie)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness, adjust to taste)

Instructions:

  1. Chop the watermelon into cubes, ensuring it's seedless.
  2. Add the watermelon, almond milk, lime juice, mint leaves, and ginger to the blender.
  3. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy.
  4. If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more almond milk. If it's not cold enough, add ice.
  5. Taste and add honey or maple syrup if desired. Blend again briefly to incorporate.
  6. Pour into a glass and enjoy! Garnish with a sprig of mint or a wedge of watermelon (optional).
