  • 1 cup frozen watermelon cubes

To make frozen watermelon cubes, simply chop up 1/4 of a ripe watermelon into cubes. This drink may come out thick - so add a splash of extra milk as needed to get an even consistency. I love the banana-watermelon combo - why is there no banana-melon ice cream?

My roommate blended this gem up today. For this recipe, she used Silk Unsweetened Coconut Milk. The seeds are optional, however the spirulina is necessary to get the gorgeous green color as pictured above.
