1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional, adjust to taste)

Juice of 1 lime

A handful of fresh mint leaves

Prepare Watermelon: Cut the watermelon into cubes and remove any seeds. For a more refreshing taste, chill the watermelon cubes in the fridge for about 30 minutes prior to blending.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste your smoothie and adjust the sweetness or tartness if needed by adding more honey/agave or lime juice.

          Serve: Pour the smoothie into chilled glasses and garnish with a sprig of mint or a slice of lime on the rim if desired.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing, tropical flavors of this delightful watermelon smoothie.
