This Refreshing Watermelon Raspberry Smoothie is a vibrant, hydrating drink perfect for hot days or a nutritious snack. Combining sweet watermelon, tart raspberries, creamy Greek yogurt, and a hint of lemon, it offers a delightful balance of flavors and a boost of antioxidants in every sip.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh seedless watermelon, cubed
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Chop the watermelon into cubes. Rinse raspberries if using fresh and gather all ingredients to streamline the blending process.
  2. Blend the Base: Add the watermelon cubes, frozen raspberries, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and honey (if using) into the blender. Add ice cubes to keep the smoothie chilled and frothy.
  3. Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high or pulse until the mixture is creamy and smooth with no chunks. Adjust the consistency by adding more ice or a splash of water if needed.
  4. Taste and Adjust: Sample the smoothie and add more honey for sweetness or more lemon juice for brightness as desired. Blend briefly again to incorporate.
  5. Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into glasses or jars and garnish with fresh mint leaves or a few whole raspberries for a perfect finishing touch.

Notes

  • Use frozen raspberries to give the smoothie a chilled texture without watering it down.
  • Substitute Greek yogurt with a dairy-free alternative to make it vegan or lactose-free.
  • Adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup according to your preference or omit for a natural fruit sweetness.
  • Add a splash of water or coconut water if the smoothie is too thick.
  • Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture as the smoothie may separate upon standing.
