Place the following ingredients in a blender

  • 1/4 of a medium sized watermelon, cut up into 1-2 inch chunks. 
  • Juice from 1 medium size lime
  • 8-10 mint leaves (If you don’t have fresh mint, you can use a couple drops of peppermint oil)
  • 10 ice cubes

Pulverize the ice and watermelon together. If you don’t have a powerful, high-speed blender, add some water to get things moving. Serve immediately and feel your body cool off from the inside out. 

Cheers to your wellness!
