Cool Melon Smoothie is a cocktail of my favourite ingredients. They are watermelon and strawberries with Greek yoghurt and a shot of honey. It is not only a highly refreshing drink especially during the summer, but it also hydrates as well. I use watermelon as its cheaper but is high in Vitamins A and C and antioxidants. Warning you need a blender for this smoothie. This smoothie can also be made in advance and put in the fridge for a day or frozen for a few months. Just thaw before using.
