About this Recipe
Strawberries and watermelon are readily available throughout the summer months. If you want a new way of eating or serving these fruits, then blend them together to make my delicious Strawberry and Watermelon Fusion!
Strawberries are juicy and rich. They not only taste great but also have several health benefits. They are high in antioxidants, Vitamin C, B9, potassium, and manganese. They help control blood sugar levels and blood pressure.
Watermelon is the perfect summer fruit. With its high antioxidant levels, fiber, water content, and other nutrients, it’s a treasure trove of health benefits.
Put the two together, and you get my delicious, crisp, sweet, and tangy summer drink!
Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make this fruity fusion drink:
- Watermelon and Strawberries: Cut the watermelon into cubes and remove all the seeds. For the strawberries, you can use fresh or frozen. Make sure both the fruits are well chilled.
- Cream and Yogurt: I add both cream and yogurt to make this drink smooth, rich, and decadent. The cream balances out the tangy strawberries and adds a smooth texture.
- Lemon juice: Lemon juice adds more tanginess and helps cut through the sweetness.
