Delicious watermelon and lime smoothie

By Neven Jones in Recipes

It gets hot in the summertime so it’s important to keep hydrated. Drinking water is important, but sometimes it’s nice to have something with a little more flavor that will still quench your thirst. This delicious watermelon lime smoothie does just that. I went to the farmer’s market yesterday and picked up a locally grown watermelon. It was big and really heavy, I could tell right away it was going to taste sweet.  I prefer the taste of a seeded melon to the seedless variety. Besides it’s unnatural for a watermelon not to have seeds. Seeds are life. Sure its more work getting the seeds out, but it’s worth it.

This drink isn’t quite as thick as a traditional smoothie, it’s more refreshing and easier to drink in large quantities without feeling too full. Begin by filling your blender with cubed watermelon and add to that the juice of 1/2 a lime. Add more lime for a sharper taste. If you want a little spice add in a little jalapeno.
