Refreshing Watermelon Smoothie with Coconut Milk in 15 Minutes // The Sound of Cooking Video

Inspired by my Taiwanese roots and childhood memories of watching my cousin and friends drink fruit milk beverages (papaya milk for example - yup, that’s big there!), I decided to make a version with watermelon juice and coconut milk. I was never a fan of cow’s milk and coconut milk pairs perfectly with watermelon! The addition of ice makes this drink even more refreshing and the medjool dates adds a subtle sweet finish. Recipe below. 🌱Turn the volume on to hear the sounds of cooking.

DIRECTIONS: 1. Place watermelon, coconut milk, ice, and pitted dates into a blender. Cover and blend until smooth. 2. Serve and enjoy immediately. NOTES: This should blend easily, but if there are still small chunks of ice, you can strain the blended drink prior to serving. Though some watermelon smoothie/slushie recipes use frozen cut watermelon in place of ice, I prefer using fresh fruit instead. It’s just personal preference! You can freeze the diced watermelon in place of using ice or do both according to taste.
