Frosty Watermelon Gazpacho
2 cups watermelon
1 cup frozen pineapple
1/2 cup cucumber
1/2-whole jalapeño (depending on how spicy you want it)
1 cup ice cubes
juice of half a lime
pinch of sea salt
Place these items in a high speed blender adding water or fruit juice if needed for consistency
Garnish with cucumber, watermelon dices, jalapeño and serve immediately.
For a chunkier gazpacho, omit ice cubes and use chilled pineapple instead of frozen and pulse in food processor or blender
