On the other hand, tangier fruits like lime or lemons complement the sweetness of the watermelon. If you're going the citrus route, add herbs such as mint or basil. Finally, frozen strawberries and raspberries make excellent additions to a watermelon smoothie, as they add sweetness and tanginess at the same time.
Adding a touch of honey or agave syrup to your smoothie can sweeten it up and enhance the flavor. These natural sweeteners provide an alternative to refined sugar, allowing you to enjoy a sweeter taste without compromising on health benefits.
Avoid mixing your watermelons, muskmelons, cantaloupe and honeydews with other fruits. Try not to mix acidic fruits, such as grapefruits and strawberries, or sub-acidic foods such as apples, pomegranates and peaches, with sweet fruits, such as bananas and raisins for a better digestion.
This can be milk, or a dairy-free alternative such as soya or almond milk, natural or flavoured yogurt, fruit juice, or for a tropical flavoured smoothie, low-fat coconut milk or coconut water. It's important to add the liquid to your blender before adding the fruit, as this will prevent the blade from getting damaged.
One of the most common smoothie-making mistakes is not adding enough liquid. For maximum flavor, use dairy milk, or keep it dairy-free by using coconut water, orange juice, coconut milk, oat milk, almond milk, or other alt-milk as your liquid.
Protein Powder. Protein smoothie recipes often contain protein powder, and Spivak says protein is an important part of a nutritious smoothie. “Protein builds and maintains muscle mass, and can help to keep you feeling full and satisfied,” she says.
Yes, drinking pineapple and watermelon juice together can provide several potential benefits for your health. Here are some of them: Hydration: Pineapple and watermelon are both high in water content, so drinking a juice made from these fruits can help to keep you hydrated and promote healthy digestion.
Feel free to use tea or soy –experiment and have fun! Typically you would add ice to a smoothie, but if your fruit is pre-frozen, it is unnecessary to use ice. Adding fruit juice is a good option, but remember to be aware of the sugar content of any fruit juice you are adding to your smoothie.
Full of vitamins - This smoothie is high in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Calcium, among many other healthy vitamins and minerals. No yogurt - Unlike other smoothies, this smoothie is made without yogurt which allows the watermelon and banana flavors to truly shine.
It is recommended to avoid mixing watermelons, muskmelons, cantaloupe, and honeydrops with other fruits. “Melons should only be eaten with melons as they are digested more rapidly than other fruits. Melons have high water content, so they might not digest properly when combined with fruits,” said Dr Reddy.
Lemon juice, lime juice, balsamic vinegar, and orange juice all add an acidic element to your marinade that quickly punches up the flavor. About 1/4 cup will be enough to marinate a medium-sized watermelon.
Some companion plants for watermelons can reduce pest infestations, like corn, garlic, radishes, broccoli, marigolds, and certain herbs. Lavender and borage can help promote pollination, while pole or bush beans can increase nitrogen in the soil.
The best plants to companion with watermelons are herbs, lettuces, marigolds, nasturtiums, and radishes. Avoid planting cucumbers, squash, and potatoes near watermelons to help reduce the risk of pests. Happy Gardening!
