Strawberry chia watermelon smoothie

Looking for a refreshing and healthy smoothie to kickstart your day or cool down on a hot afternoon? Our Strawberry Chia Watermelon Smoothie is the perfect blend of sweet and tart flavors combined with a nutrient-packed punch. This smoothie features ripe watermelon, frozen strawberries, creamy banana, and the superfood goodness of chia seeds, all brought together with a splash of almond milk and a zingy note of fresh lime. Let's dive into how you can make this delicious drink!

Ingredients:

1.50 cups watermelon
230g
1 cup frozen strawberries
150g
1/2 banana
50g
3/4 cup almond milk
180g
1 lime
70g
1/2 oz chia seeds
14g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Lime:
- Roll the lime on your countertop with a little pressure to release the juices.
- Slice the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into a small bowl. Dispose of any seeds.
2. Blend Ingredients:
- In a high-speed blender, add the cubed watermelon, frozen strawberries, and banana.
- Pour in the almond milk and freshly squeezed lime juice.
- Add the chia seeds to the blender.
3. Blend Until Smooth:
- Cover the blender and blend on high until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated and the smoothie is smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
- If the consistency is too thick, you can add a bit more almond milk and blend again until the desired consistency is reached.
4. Serve:
- Pour the smoothie into glasses.
- Optionally, garnish with a few chia seeds on top or a slice of lime on the rim of the glass for a decorative touch.
5. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately while it's cold and refreshing.

Tips:

- Ensure your watermelon is ripe and sweet for the best flavor. You can also chill the watermelon in the fridge before blending to keep your smoothie extra cold.

- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, add a few ice cubes or use a whole frozen banana instead of just half.

- For a protein boost, consider adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder or a spoonful of Greek yogurt.

- To make the smoothie even more hydrating, substitute coconut water for almond milk.

- Add a splash of vanilla extract or a handful of fresh mint leaves for an extra layer of flavor.

- Soak the chia seeds in almond milk for 10-15 minutes before blending to help them soften and blend more smoothly.

There you have it – a simple yet incredibly nutritious Strawberry Chia Watermelon Smoothie! This recipe is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy a tasty and healthful beverage. Its blend of fruits, seeds, and plant-based milk provides a balanced and satisfying treat.
