Ingredients
1 cup watermelon

1 apricot
A generous handful of cherries
A generous handful of raspberries
½ large cooked beetroot
½ mango
2 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp flaxseeds
1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
2 cups coconut water
1 cup spring water
1 tbsp local, natural honey (optional, to taste)
Adjust the amount of coconut water or spring water depending on whether you prefer a thicker/thinner smoothie.
Method
1. Prepare
Wash all fresh fruit thoroughly. Peel & roughly chop the banana, peach, apricot & mango. Chop the cooked beetroot into smaller pieces.
2. Blend
Add all of the ingredients to a high-speed blender- making sure your water is fridge cold (a smoothie/juice always tastes nicer cold!)
Blend for 3-5 minutes until smooth & creamy.
3. Adjust
If you'd like a thinner smoothie, simply add a little more coconut water or spring water & blend again. For extra natural sweetness, stir in a tablespoon of local honey.
4. Serve

Jordanna's Tip
For the best taste, use chilled fruit. I love serving this smoothie as part of a nourishing breakfast for myself & the kids- even the baby loves it! Pair it with a handful of nuts as a light snack.
Colour your plate, nourish your body & let nature do the rest.
