Ingredients:

1 tbsp lime juice
16g
2 cups watermelon
310g
1 cup frozen strawberries
150g
1.50 tsp maple syrup
10g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- If not already done, cube the watermelon to make 2 cups.
- Ensure that the strawberries are frozen. This will give your smoothie a thicker and colder texture.
2. Add Ingredients to the Blender:
- Start by adding the 2 cups of cubed watermelon to the blender.
- Next, add the 1 cup of frozen strawberries.
- Pour in the 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lime juice.
- Add the 1.5 teaspoons of maple syrup for a touch of sweetness.
3. Blend:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend all the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is smooth and all the fruits are fully incorporated. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- If needed, stop the blender and scrape down the sides to ensure all ingredients are evenly blended.
4. Adjust Consistency (Optional):
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a small amount of water or more watermelon and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
5. Serve:
- Once the smoothie is smooth and at the desired consistency, pour it into glasses.
- Serve immediately while it's cold and refreshing.
6. Garnish (Optional):
- For an extra touch, you can garnish the smoothie with a slice of lime or a small piece of watermelon on the rim of the glass.

Tips:

- Choose ripe fruits: For the best flavor, make sure to use ripe, juicy watermelon and strawberries. This will enhance the sweetness and overall taste of your smoothie.

- Adjust sweetness: Taste your smoothie before serving and adjust the sweetness to your preference. You can add more maple syrup if you like a sweeter drink.

- Add greens: For an extra boost of nutrients, consider adding a handful of spinach or kale. The flavor will be mild and the smoothie will still taste delicious.

- Use a high-speed blender: To achieve a smooth and creamy texture, use a high-speed blender. This will also ensure all the ingredients are well combined.

- Serve immediately: Smoothies are best enjoyed fresh. Serve immediately after blending to enjoy the best flavor and texture.

- Garnish your smoothie: For a fun presentation, garnish your smoothie with a slice of lime or a few fresh strawberry slices on top.

- Consider freezing watermelon: If you prefer a thicker, colder smoothie, consider freezing the watermelon chunks before blending. This will give your smoothie a slushy consistency.

In just a few simple steps, you've created a refreshing and nutritious Strawberry Watermelon Smoothie with Lime and Maple Syrup. This drink is perfect for a quick breakfast, a midday snack, or a post-workout refresher. Enjoy the naturally sweet and tangy flavors, and feel good about nourishing your body with fresh, healthy ingredients.
