Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Watermelon
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 1.5 cups Coconut water
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 tablespoon Honey or agave syrup (optional)
Instructions
Cut the watermelon into cubes, removing any seeds, until you have 2 cups.
Peel the cucumber and roughly chop it into smaller pieces for easier blending.
If using fresh pineapple, cut it into chunks. If using frozen pineapple, measure out 1 cup.
Add the watermelon cubes, cucumber pieces, pineapple chunks, and fresh mint leaves into a blender.
Pour in the coconut water and add the lime juice for a tangy kick.
If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add the honey or agave syrup at this stage.
Throw in the ice cubes for an extra frosty texture.
Blend all the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice as needed.
Pour the smoothie into two chilled glasses, garnish with a sprig of mint or a lime wedge if desired, and serve immediately.
