Watermelon Apple Cider Vinegar Smoothie

Sweet, creamy, and bright, this watermelon smoothie has it all. And on top of having stellar flavors from the fruit, yogurt, and apple cider vinegar, this smoothie also has an extra kiss of health from a handful of frozen spinach!

In fact, I’d call this “grandmother approved” because of all the wholesome and spunky ingredients! (I’m assuming I’m not the only person in the world who would describe their grandmother as both “wholesome” and “spunky.”)

Watermelon apple cider vinegar smoothie prep tips

Freezing the watermelon works really well in this smoothie. To freeze it, just cut the watermelon up into chunks, and place them on a parchment lined, rimmed baking sheet. Space them about ½-inch apart to ensure they freeze completely, and let them sit in the freezer for about 45 minutes. And voila! Frozen watermelon!

Watermelon apple cider vinegar smoothie ingredients + substitutions

• 3 cups frozen watermelon chunks
• 1 cup almond milk, or other milk of your choice
• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
• ½ cup fresh or frozen spinach leaves
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Substitutions

As written, this smoothie is vegetarian and paleo. To make it dairy-free and vegan, simply replace the greek yogurt with any non-dairy yogurt. (I’d recommend coconut yogurt.)

What if I don’t have almond milk on hand?

Feel free to grab whatever type of milk that tickles your fancy! Unsweetened oat milk would be fantastic, and so would regular milk! Go wild with what you have in the refrigerator.
