Watermelon Lemon Cooler

Watermelon Lemon Cooler

Summer and watermelon just complements eachother. Watermelon is one of the many fruits which we get in summer. It is a trailing vine originally from Southern Africa. It is a large annual plant with coarse hairy leaves and white to yellow flowers. Watermelons are tropical plants.

Watermelon contains 92% of water and 7.5% of crab. It contains no protein and fat. It contains a high amount of vitamins, mineral and anti oxidents and low amount of calories. Watermelon decreases risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and also grows healthy complexion and hair. It is a good source of vitamin C, potassium, copper, vitamin B5 and vitamin A.

I love watermelon. In summer I made this summer cooler. But this time I made it more healthier as I used honey instead of sugar. So dieting people can drink it without any guilt. Mint, black salt and lemon bring out the best taste from the drink. Most refreshing and cooling  drink for this summer. Here is the recipe for all.

Watermelon​ Cubes- 300gms
Black Salt- 1/2tsp
Honey- 5 to 6 tbsp
(Depending upon the sweetness of melon)
Lemon- 1
Mint leaves- 1handful
Ice Cubes- 1/2cup

Take watermelon cubes and try to remove seeds. Clean the mint leaves to remove dirt.

In a blender jar add melon cubes, salt, ice cubes and mint leaves and blend it together. Strain the liquid in a strainer.

Now add honey and lemon juice to it. Taste the drink and balance the taste. 

Serve cold.
