Danish summer and the scent of strawberry fields are one of my strongest childhood memories, and when I made this recipe, it all came flooding back. That’s how magical our sense of smell is. 

Strawberry Rush tastes of sweet strawberries and fresh mint. Serve it as a healthy and refreshing snack for both adults and children. 

The ingredients are rich in anti-inflammatory, bioactive plant compounds, including lycopene and citrulline from watermelon, the flavonoids fisetin and quercetin from strawberries, and beneficial vitamins and minerals from mint. If you look into the nutritional content of the ingredients listed above, you can’t help but fall completely in love with our dynamic natural world.

This recipe makes approx. ½ litre of smoothie

Fruit and vegetables can be used either frozen or fresh.

• 300 grams of watermelon
• 10 strawberries
• 3 sprigs of mint
• 30 grams of cauliflower
• 5 cm courgette
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1 dl water.
• Optional: 1 tsp honey, if you want a sweeter smoothie or ice lolly 

Method

/ Add all the ingredients to the blender and blend until you have a smoothie with no lumps.

You can easily givethe strawberry smoothie a twist by, for example, swapping the mint for basil. This gives you a completely different flavour experience.
