❓Recipe FAQs
With smoothies, the possibilities are endless! This strawberry watermelon smoothie also tastes delicious with added mango or raspberry.
No need to thaw frozen fruit completely, as the icy quality adds to the smoothie. But you can take the frozen fruit out of the freezer and let it sit on the counter at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before blending. This helps the fruit blend more smoothly.
You can eliminate the yogurt and add ice to make this a strawberry watermelon slushie instead of a smoothie. It's just as delicious!

I really need to get myself a blender or nutri bullet. Every time you post another recipe I want a smoothie so bad and this one sounds great. I love watermelon!!!

For as many smoothies as we make, I probably should invest in some sort of industrial juicer or fancy blender :) We just use a basic ol' blender. Enjoy all of the delicious watermelon available this summer!
