Rambutan Lychee Smoothie
This exotic tropical smoothie blends the delicate floral notes of lychee with the creamy, sweet profile of fresh rambutan for a refreshing, hydrating drink. Perfectly balanced with a hint of lime, it is an elegant escape in a glass.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 10 whole fresh rambutans peeled and seeds removed
- 10 whole fresh lychees peeled and seeds removed
- 1 cup coconut water chilled
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt plain or vanilla
- 1 tbsp honey adjust to taste
- 1 tsp lime juice freshly squeezed
- 1 cup ice cubes crushed ice preferred
- 2 sprigs fresh mint for garnish
Notes
For a vegan version, substitute the Greek yogurt with coconut cream and use agave nectar instead of honey. If using canned lychees or rambutans, reduce the added honey as canned fruit is often packed in heavy syrup. Best served immediately, but can be stored in an airtight thermos for up to 4 hours.
