Watermelon, the classic summer fruit is nature’s gift to keep our body hydrated and cool during summer months. This recipe combines watermelon juice with flavourful, cooling and fragrant mint leaves to create a perfect summer cooler! When you cut a watermelon, which does not turn out to be that sweet or juicy, simply churn in blender and make a juice. Tastes a lot better. Incase you are in a hurry, put in blender along with seeds, and sieve later.
