- Total Time: 10 Minutes
- Yield: 2 Servings 1x
Scale
Ingredients
- ½ Cup Water: I didn’t add much liquid to my smoothie but you may need a little bit more so the watermelon doesn’t get stuck. Add as little as you can get away with.
- ¼ of a small watermelon. About 4 cups
- 1 small avocado
- ¼ Cucumber
- 10 mint leaves
- 10 basil leaves
- 10 Coriander leaves

- Blend the ingredients in the order listed.
- Add more water if required to thin it out.
- Substitute any of the ingredients for whatever you already have.
If your smoothie is too warm, you can cool it down in the fridge. For any further questions please read How to make a Green Thickie.
