Berry & Watermelon Smoothie

I made this with my children after trying to find something they could help with in the kitchen. They had this for breakfast and made more and more batches until I ran out of watermelon! Can also be frozen for an ice block or sorbet-type dessert

So refreshing! I used fresh strawberries and a splash of milk. I did not use any ice this time, but I can see that being a good option too. Thanks for sharing! ~PAC Spring '10~

This is wonderfully refreshing. I really didn't measure any of my ingredients either as Jubes stated. I used both fresh and frozen strawberries and also one frozen banana. A good 1/2 blender full of watermelon and a splash of milk. DH wanted some also and so after blending all together and pouring mine in a tall glass I added a few scoops of vanilla icecream (frozen vanilla yogurt would be great too) to the mix for him. So good and creamy. I didn't add ice, cinnamon or honey. I did put in one packet of splenda to my mix before adding the icecream:-)
