Watermelon cantaloupe mint smoothie.
Watermelon is easily available in this season. This refreshing fruit has mostly water and full of nutrients.
I love chilled watermelon juice in summer. And tried this juice with many other ingredients to make different delicious dishes.
Today sharing a smoothie with it. Pairing it with another summer fruit cantaloupe or muskmelon or Kharbuj. Lightly flavoured with mint.
If you don’t like mint you can use cinnamon or any other flavour of your choice.
I didn’t use any sweetener in it. Watermelon and cantaloupe made the smoothie perfectly sweet.

I was thinking about a yoghurt based curry to share today. But this time I want to share my breakfast with you. Yes in summer smoothie is a best breakfast option. Chilled, refreshing, filling and yummy.
If you are a regular reader of my blog then you know that I have shared different smoothie recipes in every summer.

Keep it in refrigerator or add some crushed ice cubes and enjoy the chilled glass of healthy fruity smoothie.
