Watermelon Smoothie Rocks

From apples to oranges, watermelons to grapes, bananas to honeydew… I reckon I stock waaaaay too much fruits in my fridge.

I have this urge to buy fruits when I see them.

Walking around the supermarket, and by some unexplained force, I am drawn to the vibrant colours of fruits on display and by some weird hypnosis, pick the fruits of the shelves and put them into my trolley.

As a result of this bad habit, and because there are only two of us living at home, my fruits sometimes go bad before I get a chance to eat them. I mean, how much fruits can one eat in a day right?

Over the weekend, I dug out half a watermelon from the fridge. And because this was the second gigantic watermelon we had that week, I decided to turn the remaining watermelon into a drink instead and decided to make watermelon smoothie.

It took about 15 minutes to whip up a big tumbler of fresh watermelon smoothie, yes, even for a kitchen noob like me… and here’s my VERY simple recipe for you to try!

Ingredients

  1. Half a watermelon
  2. 1/2 cup of plain yogurt
  3. 1/2 cup of milk
  4. 2 tablespoons of honey
  5. Ice cubes

How to?

  1. Cut watermelon into medium-sized pieces and put everything into the blender.
  2. Empty yoghurt, milk and honey.
  3. Add ice cubes.
  4. Close the lid of the blender (VERY IMPORTANT STEP!) and press START!
  5. Blend to desirable consistency.
  6. Serve!

Easy right? You can of course substitute the watermelon with any other fruits.. or even mix a few fruits together to create your very own refreshing summer blend!
