WATER MELON JUICE / SUGAR BABY JUICE

As the temperature rises to  45 degree , and was feeling so tired , the only way to beat was the drinks . Consuming water melon in any form helps to keep us hydrated.So times  i combine with lemon juice too.  In any forms this is one of the favourite drinks. 

INGREDIENTS:

WATER MELON	2 CUPS  (CHOPPED)
SUGAR / HONEY( OPTIONAL )	AS PER TASTE
ICE CUBES	5-6 NOS
LIME JUICE ( OPTIONAL )	1 /2 TBLSP

 METHOD:

• Cut the water melon and remove the flesh part from the thick skin. ( i used my ladle to remove )

•  Transfer it to the juicer jar, and if adding sugar and lime juice, then add it now ( i didnt added both).My melon was naturally sooo sweet.
• Blend it for 1 minute and strain through the straine

• Pour it to the serving glass and add ice cubes. 

 

Tips: 1.       Sugar / honey is optional.  If the melon is sweet enough then no need to add. 2.       Adding lime juice gives a good taste . 3.       Rose syrup can also be added to it .If adding add it at last. 4.    While blending, first give a pluse, remove the jar and shake well, and again blend. This will help to blend easily.
