After a few trials and tweaks, I finally nailed the perfect recipe for my Refreshing Beetroot and Watermelon Smoothie! 🌱🍉 This drink is a beautiful mix of earthy beetroot and juicy watermelon, with a hint of citrus zing that brings the flavors together in a vibrant, summery burst. It’s as satisfying to look at as it is to drink! 🎨✨
For an added health boost, I used coconut water instead of regular water. It adds a tropical vibe and extra hydration, which is perfect for hot days or post-workout refreshment!
Let’s talk nutrition! This beetroot-watermelon combo comes in at around 90 calories and just 17 grams of natural sugars per 16-ounce serving. The watermelon is the main source of the sweetness here, and the beetroot adds fiber and antioxidants without many extra calories. If you prefer it a little lighter, you can skip the ice or use half a beet for a milder flavor.
Best of all, this vibrant drink costs under $1.50 per serving—far cheaper than the $6 you might spend on a store-bought version. Sip, savor, and enjoy this homemade super drink! 🍹💖
Instructions:
Add all the ingredients to your smoothie cup or blender in the order listed. Blend for about 2 minute, or until you achieve a smooth consistency. This recipe yields a 15-16 oz serving.
