Yummy Watermelon Smoothie

I love this watermelon smoothie because it’s filled with some of my favorite Summer fruit! I love using fruit straight from our NYC garden, and I even freeze some so I can enjoy this smoothie in the Winter too.

It includes fresh watermelon and strawberries with a touch of lime to create a delicious Summer-feeling smoothie!   Does anyone else love a touch of lime in their drink? This smoothie is healthy, giving you a burst of energy and low calorie (doesn’t use any milk).

And bonus: both of my kids absolutely love this smoothie. Whenever I make one for myself, I need to make one for them too!

  4. mint
watermelon, strawberries, mint and lime on table.

Is frozen or fresh watermelon better for smoothies?

Honestly, both fresh and frozen watermelon work well for smoothies, each having their own pros. Fresh watermelon tastes amazing, and the sweetness really pops through in this smoothie. Frozen watermelon is very convenient, and when using frozen fruit you don’t need to add ice cubes. Use whichever you have on hand!

During the Summer I like to freeze watermelon that I can use during the Winter for smoothies. This is very budget friendly as you don’t need to buy watermelon when it’s out of season. To freeze, just chop it up and place in a freezer bag – so easy! I love using watermelon to make watermelon popsicles too!

    Soo…. I tried really hard to convince one of the giant heads to move to Brooklyn and live in your garden but he was sort of into the Island, so I was forced to leave him behind. I hope you’ll settle for pictures, though, which I’ll have soon 🙂 Thank you again SO MUCH for making this delicious and oh-so-pretty smoothie for me to share while I was gone!

    It is officially Autumn here now, I went out with a thick coat on today and was still cold. Also, it was raining. And I loved it! (I’m strange, I know) Still, this sounds so tempting and refreshing… I’m pinning it to try next Summer!

    I think it’s incredible that you’re still producing strawberries! Ours got eaten up by something early in 🙁 These look fantastic!

    I am so still into slurping up refreshing treats like this! And I did not eat enough watermelon this summer. But it’s supposed to hit 90 today so…smoothie time!

    What a beautiful smoothie girl. I never think to freeze watermelon, but I should. I love this combination of flavors and the red vibrant color. It still feels like summer where we are, so this would be a super refreshing treat for the kids after school 🙂 xoxo, Jackie

    I want to be a little mouse that lives on your rooftop. I hope you aren’t afraid of mice though cause I’d probably sneak downstairs when I smelled you cooking something really good or take a little swim when you make a beautiful, tasty smoothie like this one.

      Hahaha, I would probably scream, but if I knew it was you, then it would be ok! I would make you wear little bows in your hair. 🙂

    I went strawberry picking a few weeks back and it was glorious! I was a bit dismayed that fall had hit Toronto but today we just started a heat wave so I’m whipping the summer berries back out (by that I mean picking them up at the market)…not sure what I am going to do with the 10 cans of pumpkin I just bought…I can’t bring myself to eat it when I am sweltering!!! LOL

    This Summertime Treat sounds amazing for the fall season! Love the combination of these three fruits! I tried these baby strawberries at a grocery store in Spain, they were as cute as buttons, plus juicy and sweet. Yours look so cute, too!
