So summer is almost here… we’ll need to rehydrate ourselves with all kinds of delicious juices… This watermelon punch is simply an unavoidable one for this summer, it’s so refreshing and the touch of kiwis spice it up a little. This is a sure popular punch, I mean… who doesn’t like watermelon? If you have some brunch or afternoon event to make, this punch is the way to go. You can add a fresh sparkling water next to it, for the ones who likes it bubbly…

I’m writing all this, but the truth is, it’s not really a recipe, it’s mainly a blended watermelon with iced kiwis and a touch of lime and salt. So simple, yet so healthy and tasty!

In my childhood my favorite bubblegum was those big rectangular and soft watermelon and kiwi flavoured ones, well today, as a grown-up, I’ve simply changed the format for a healthier way to consume this ingredients mix… an easy homemade punch. There is no better way to fill up your body with vitamin C and hydrate during those hot summer days to come.

Let’s make that punch ready!
