Ingredients
- 3 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut water
- Juice of ½ lime (optional)
- Ice cubes (optional, for serving)
- Fresh mint sprigs or lime slices for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the fruit
Wash the watermelon and strawberries thoroughly. Cube the watermelon and remove stems from the strawberries. - Blend the ingredients
Add watermelon, strawberries, coconut water, and lime juice (if using) to a blender. Blend on high until smooth and frothy. - Optional: Strain
For a smoother texture, pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher or directly into glasses. - Serve chilled
Fill glasses with ice (if desired), pour in the cooler, and garnish with mint or lime. Serve immediately for best flavor and freshness.
Notes
- For baby-friendly or toddler versions, omit the lime and strain thoroughly.
- You can substitute coconut water with regular water, almond milk, or light fruit juice.
- Frozen strawberries work well for an extra-chilled slushy effect.
- To turn this into a smoothie bowl, reduce coconut water and top with granola and fresh fruit.
