I think you have guessed by now how much I love watermelon. In the summer I tend to consume lots as it is good for the kidneys and water retention. I also put chia seeds and baobab powder in my smoothie for extra vitamins and energy. Chia seeds are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and protein so ideal for vegans. Baobab powder has more vitamin C than oranges and is great for energy and supports your immune system.
Ingredients:
3 slices of watermelon with the rind
1 tablespoon of chia seeds
1 teaspoon of baobab powder ( I use Organic Burst)
4 mint leaves
Place all the ingredients in the blender and blend till smooth. You can add ice cubes if you prefer it cold. Personally I tend to drink all my juices/smoothies at room temperature as it is healthier and I do not like cold drinks. Ice or no ice enjoy this refreshing smoothie!
This looks great! Perfect for a hot summer day.
Yes it’s my favourite summer drink.
This is so very refreshing, how about adding a pineapple chunk to this?
I have never tried adding pineapple but sounds good. Will have to try it.
It’s lovely exchanging such ideas.
Was going through your blog, you write lovely on health.
I’ve tried Strawberry Sorbet, just added some nuts to it 🙂
Thank you so much, you are very kind!
