Ingredients
  

2 cups diced watermelon (seedless)

1 ripe banana, frozen

1 cup coconut water or plant-based milk (like almond or oat)

1 tablespoon lime juice (freshly squeezed)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Ice cubes (optional, for a colder smoothie)

Instructions
 

Start by washing the watermelon thoroughly before cutting it into manageable chunks.

    In a blender, combine the diced watermelon, frozen banana, coconut water (or plant-based milk), and lime juice.

      If you like a bit of texture and nutrition, add the chia seeds to the blender.

        Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If you'd like a colder smoothie, add ice cubes and blend again until desired consistency is reached.

          Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if necessary; you can add a drizzle of agave syrup or maple syrup if desired.

            Pour the smoothie into glasses and garnish with fresh mint leaves if you wish.

              Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing treat!
