While we are still in the heat of summer, why not enjoy the seasonal flavors that nature offers us? On a hot day while spending time in the sun, this is one of my favorite ways to re-energize and replenish my body with electrolytes.
It’s easy to turn to sugary beverages and popsicles in the summer months. But the ingredients, food dyes, and excess sugar aren’t exactly gut-friendly!
The frozen watermelon, coconut water, and basil make an indulgent yet nutritious beverage. Satisfying to the tastebuds, plus a way for your body to regain the electrolytes.
Share with the kids for a tasty dessert and relive the days of the ice-cream man with a fun and gut-friendly twist.
Enjoy the rest of your summer.
