Watermelon Mint Cooler

Watermelon is a one of the most easily available fruits and is so refreshing. This summer drink recipe which I am about to share combines the freshness of watermelon and coolness of mint. This is quick drink to serve along with appetizers at a party or you can just prepare it in minutes and pamper yourself with a yummy, healthy treat.

Serves: 2

Preparation time: 5 mins.

Cooking time: 0 mins.

Ingredients:

3 cups watermelon,cubed

1 tablespoon lemon juice

5-6 Mint leaves

Sugar to taste

Ice cubes to serve

Directions:

1. Cut the watermelon into small cubes and wash the mint leaves.
2. Combine the watermelon, lemon juice and sugar in the blender and puree until smooth.
3. Pour in a jar and add mint leaves.
4. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. This allows flavour of mint to gel in with the watermelon.
5. Take serving glasses and put ice cubes in each glass, pour in the mixture.
6. Stir and serve chilled.

Tips:

• Skip the refrigeration step if you are running short of time.
• Serve chilled.
