It is summer and this means watermelon saison is here, yay! This sweet & delicious watermelon smoothie is the perfect refreshment for hot summer days. It is light, hydrating and super healthy! I love the combination of the sweet watermelon and fresh lime and mint. You need only a handful of simple ingredients and 5 minutes time. Enjoy!

Tipp: If you find organic watermelon you could also use some of the dark green watermelon peel, since it contains a lot of cutrullin, a substance which boosts the immune system.
