Hope you all enjoyed Friday’s entertaining little detour from the health & fitness posts–let’s get back to what I’m drinking 99% of the time (i.e. not beer). 🙂
Nothing says “summer” like watermelon, right?? Growing up, my cousins and I would have watermelon seed spitting contests, and in case you’re wondering (I know you are, since we’re all eight years old here…), the key to getting maximal distance is to roll the seed in your tongue to create a chute, and launch it from there with a forceful exhale.
WIth knowledge like this, I’ve pretty much got “The Cool Aunt” title on lock. Not that I’m an aunt, but you get where I’m going.
This juice is so refreshing! And would taste amazing as a cocktail. Make a big batch, throw in some vodka, and you’ve got a summer BBQ home run.
Ingredients
- 2 heaping cups chopped watermelon
- ½ cucumber
- 1 lime, peeled
- 1 handful mint (about 5 sprigs)
Instructions
- Peel the lime. Use a peeler to remove the green, but keep some of the white coating underneath (lots of nutrients in there!).
- Run everything through your juicer.
Hope you had a fun weekend!
Hey there! I'm Nicole, a group fitness instructor, healthy lifestyle blogger (you probably figured that one out by now) and Certified Personal Trainer living in Boston, MA.
That looks delish!
Yum! I have never juiced watermelon – but it sounds amazing!
It’s awesome! And since it has so much water in it you get a TON of juice–it’s great for sweetening up juices with lots of kale/spinach/veggies with lower juice yields 🙂
That looks really good! Have to make sure to add the ingredients to my next shopping list.
Ohhh yumm! Definitely ‘pinning’ this recipe 🙂
Pinned it! My mouth is literally watering for this! Looks fantastic! Nicole, where do you come up with your wonderful recipes?! Keep em coming, as I haven’t tried one of yours that I haven’t loved.
For every recipe I post to the blog there are like four total kitchen fails haha. I’m still working on my culinary skills so lots of experimenting 🙂
Lol…you and me both! I think YOU are killin it though…:)
WHOA! This looks amazing! Throw some vodka in, and it becomes doubly amazing!
Can I also just say I’m kind of obsessed with your blog? And I kind of (really) wish you were on the west coast so I could have you kill me in a B Tone class.
Maybe I should start trying to convince a SoCal studio to fly me out for a guest teaching event… (I wish haha) 🙂
Consider it made! I’m all over this. <3
