About

Few things say "summer" like watermelon, and even fewer things say "refreshing summer beverage" like these Creamy Watermelon Smoothies! The sweet, juicy watermelon flavor, accented with banana and strawberry for an extra bright summertime burst, made creamy with coconut yogurt, will have everyone talking about how these drinks not only quenched their thirst, but also brought smiles to their faces. Creamy Watermelon Smoothies make even the most jaggedly sweltering days seem smooth.
