So Refreshing!
I love a good smoothie. Maybe that’s because they are simple, yet good. With a wide variety of flavor combinations, there’s certainly no need to get bored!
It only takes 10 minutes to make Easy Strawberry Watermelon Lime Smoothies. One recipe yields four glasses (8 ounces, each) or three glasses (8.5-ounces, each – as pictured above).
Ingredients
The ingredients consist of strawberries, watermelon, fresh lime juice, agave nectar, and ice. (The addition of alcohol is optional.)
Blend
Place the ingredients into a blender. (I suggest using a blender that can easily crush ice such as a Ninja blender, a Vitamix blender, or perhaps a NutriBullet blender. I personally own a Ninja Professional Blender. This puppy crushes ice in mere seconds!) Next, cover and blend until the mixture is smooth and slushy.
