Serves: 3 (750 ml total)

Ingredients

  • 2 cups (500 mL) honeydew melon chunks
  • 2 Pure Green Tea tea bags
  • 1 cup (250 mL) boiling water
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) honey (optional)

Directions

  1. Arrange the honeydew on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place in the freezer until frozen; transfer to a re-sealable freezer bag. (Melon can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 month.)

Tips

  • Make this smoothie anytime you like by freezing extra melon in advance and portioning into separate, re-sealable freezer bags.
  • Experiment with other combinations of our teas and fruit for equally delicious smoothies such as Chai Tea with frozen cantaloupe, and Bellini Peach Orange Tea with a frozen tropical fruit medley.
