A Note from Alicia:
It’s nearly summer, and the quintessential summer fruit is watermelon. It’s jam packed with antioxidants (think anti-aging!) and other amazing nutrients like B vitamins, magnesium and potassium. Eating watermelon is great way to keep your body beautiful, hydrated and happy all summer long.
To make this refreshing drink even frothier, try freezing the watermelon before blending it. And don’t forget to use the white part of the rind (this is different than the green outer layer which should be discarded) and the seeds. They are filled with good-for-you nutrients that your body would otherwise miss!
This yummy summer drink can also be blended and poured into ice pop molds for yummy popsicles (ice lollies) that kids will LOVE. Enjoy!
