Watermelon Lime Slushy


We have really been on a smoothie kick lately.  What's not to like?  Some frozen fruit (no sugar added, please), a few scoops vanilla protein powder, maybe a splash of milk and voila!  A pretty good breakfast.  This slushy is a little different, though still amazing!  The lime and watermelon are a great combination, super refreshing.  And the frozen banana makes the drink really creamy.  Again, I'm not a banana person, but I'm discovering that only applies if I were to take a bite out of a banana (blech).  I rather like them blended up in smoothies or baked into muffins :)

PS: check this out!  Our nephew, Brayden, learning a few golf tips from old uncle Peetie.  He was only interested in gnawing on the end of the club, but you gotta start somewhere!!  :)

Watermelon Lime Slushy
Serves 2

3 cups watermelon, cubed and frozen
1 ripe banana, peeled and frozen
2 Tbsp sugar
Zest and juice from 2 limes
1/2 cup water

Blend all ingredients in a blender, adding more water as needed to keep fruit moving.  Add in a few shots of tequila or rum if you're feeling crazy :)
