Ready Time

Yields

5 servings

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups cubed seedless watermelon
1/2 cup frozen pineapple chunks
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
1/2 banana sliced
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Ice cubes (as needed)
5 ounces coconut water

Instructions

Add the cubed watermelon, frozen pineapple chunks, fresh mint leaves, sliced banana, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract to a high-powered blender.

Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.

Add ice cubes to the blender if you want a thicker, colder smoothie.

Blend until the ice is crushed and the smoothie is the desired consistency.

Pour in the coconut water and blend until well combined.

Blend the smoothie for an additional 10-15 seconds to ensure everything is fully incorporated and the smoothie is smooth.

Pour the smoothie into 5 glasses and serve immediately.

You can garnish with additional fresh mint leaves or a sprinkle of honey, if desired.

Notes

Make sure to use seedless watermelon to avoid any Texture issues in your smoothie. If you want a stronger mint flavor, you can add a few more fresh mint leaves or even use peppermint extract instead of vanilla.

For a thicker smoothie, add more banana or a scoop of protein powder.

Coconut water can be substituted with regular water if you don’t have it on hand. If you’re planning to make this smoothie ahead of time, wait to add the coconut water until just before serving, as it can make the smoothie a bit watery.

You can also add other fruits like berries or mango to change up the flavor and make it your own!
