Thursday’s Side Dish: Watermelon Smoothie


A freshening drink

The hot summer weeks have The Mixed Stew Crew making new and flavorful beverages.  There’s not much effort in this watermelon smoothie besides nourishing fruit lusciousness.  This drink is similar to aqua fresca but does not call for added water.  Here’s the recipe:

What you will need:

1 seedless watermelon, cut into small wedges
1 blender
1 pitcher
1 cutting board

Preparation & Directions:

Cut green skin or watermelon rind away from red flesh of watermelon wedges.  Place 5 to 6 wedges into blender.  Pulse and blend contents until smooth.  Pour into pitcher.  Repeat process until all watermelon is blended.  Place the pitcher in fridge and chill overnight before serving.  Enjoy.
