1. Watermelon, Cucumber, Mint
Watermelon juice is naturally sweet, refreshing, and packed with water, making it perfect for summer. It contains carotenoids, particularly lycopene and lutein, which have been shown to prevent cancer and enhance vision. Watermelon also provides vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. When juicing, simply remove the thin outer skin, leaving a bit of the white rind and the inner fruit, without the seeds.
This recipe also incorporates cucumber, a close relative of watermelon. Cucumber has natural diuretic properties due to its high water content (98% of cucumber is water), helping to flush out waste and cleanse the body. With its high silica content, cucumber is great for the skin and can help reduce conditions like eczema, psoriasis, hair loss, and inflammation in joints, muscles, and ligaments caused by high uric acid levels. If using organic cucumbers, it's best to juice the skin as it contains vitamin A. Cucumber is also highly alkalizing, and adding a cucumber to this juice helps balance the acidity of sugary fruits.
How to make:
- Prepare watermelon, cucumber, and mint leaves
- Peel the watermelon and cucumber, rinse them, and chop them into small pieces
- Blend and strain the watermelon, cucumber, and mint mixture
- Then, add the watermelon, cucumber, mint leaves, 50ml of lime juice, and 50g of sugar to the blender and blend until smooth
