Where did all the air go? It was 41 degrees when I picked Rebecca up from school.
This is just the ticket on a day like this... and super good for you. Watermelon is packed with goodness like beta-carotene & lycopene (carotenoids - very good for you, believe me), calcium, vitamin C etc (a long list of goodness... to hot to explain today) and the seeds can be discarded but I don't. Just blitz them real good and you will get the lovely benefit of good protein, vitamins and minerals (some people even roast them).
Watermelon juice
1 kg watermelon, peeled and cubed
200ml orange juice
10 ml bitters (a nice option, if not, no worries)
lots of crushed ice
Okay, this is it... place all (except ice, although sometimes I chuck it all in) in a blender and pulp
away. Top with much crushed ice and gulp down.
If you don't like the bits, then remove seeds and blend as above. Then strain and add ice.
Lovely! This makes the day's heat more bearable.
