EQUIPMENT
- High speed blender

INGREDIENTS
- 300 grams (10.5ounces / 1 ¾ cups) watermelon, cut into cubes – see note 1
- 120 grams banana (1 medium), broken into pieces – see note 2
- ½ cup yogurt – dairy or dairy free - see note 3
Optional
- 1 tablespoon honey, or maple syrup optional and add to taste
INSTRUCTIONS

- Put the lid on the blender and blend until smooth.
- Taste for sweetness, adding some honey if you would like it sweeter. Blend to mix.
- Pour into glasses, garnish as desired, and enjoy.
Notes
- If using cup measure - To get approximately 230 grams of watermelon, cut the watermelon into small 2 cm (0.8 inches) cubes, then fill the one cup and the half cup measuring cups level with the top.
- A medium banana is about 18 – 20 cm (7 – 8 inches) long. Use a ripe one for natural sweetness.
- You can use a natural or flavored yogurt like vanilla or banana.
- Turn this into a cooling and refreshing summer drink by freezing the watermelon cubes before blending.
