Strawberry & Watermelon Smoothie
Summer treat of note! Nothing screams SUMMER like a fresh watermelon, this is a great way to make a watermelon type slushie using frozen strawberries as the icy mixer. Add a squeeze of lemon and a shot of tequila or rum for an exceptional cocktail!
Ingredients
Serves 1
2 cups fresh seedless Watermelon chunks
1 cup Frozen Strawberries
Dash coconut water or fruit juice (I prefer a non dairy option with this combo)
Squeeze of fresh lemon or lime
Adult Optional: 1 Shot White Rum or White Tequila (if using alcohol, only add another liquid if required)

Method
1. Using either your food processor/nutri bullet/stick blender blitz together your smoothie ingredients, adding as much liquid as you prefer. Test the sweetness and adjust sweetness by adding some honey if you would like.
2. If the blender blade gets stuck and wont blend, stop and scrape down or mix ingredients with a spoon and repeat blending. Sometimes the mix needs a little bit of coaxing to finish blending. If it’s really struggling add a bit more liquid. If you have gone too far with adding liquid, remember you can always stiffen it up again by placing a bit more frozen fruit into the mix.
3. Place in a bowl and top any suitable toppings and serve immediately.
