Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups fresh watermelon cubed // black seeds removed
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1/2 medium ripe banana previously peeled // chopped and frozen
  • 1/2 – 3/4 cup unsweetened plain almond milk DIY recipe
  • 1 medium lime juiced // 1 lemon yields ~30 ml
  • 1 Tbsp chia or hemp seeds optional

Instructions
 

  • Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until creamy and smooth, adding more almond milk to thin, or more frozen strawberries or ice to thicken.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more lime for acidity, banana for sweetness, or watermelon for a more intense watermelon flavor.
  • Serves 2 (as original recipe is written) – top with additional chia seeds to mock watermelon seeds! Best when fresh, though leftovers keep covered in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
