  4. Blend on high speed until completely smooth, about 30–45 seconds.

Notes

For a thicker texture, freeze the watermelon cubes ahead of time. This turns your drink into more of a watermelon slushie. If you're dairy-free, swap the Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt or a plant-based alternative. Want to make it a meal? Add a scoop of protein powder or a spoonful of chia seeds. And if you're feeling adventurous, a pinch of sea salt can enhance the sweetness of the watermelon.
