The ultimate summer smoothie is here! This is so refreshing and delicious, you’re not going
to believe it.
If you’re craving something sweet that tastes like dessert yet is quite healthy, give this
smoothie a try. It will cool you off on a hot summer day, and is a great replacement for
sugar-laden popsicles for kids. Pour this smoothie into an ice cube tray or molds for healthy
homemade popsicles.
What health benefits does this smoothie have to offer? Watermelon and raspberries are
both high in vitamin C, which packs a big antioxidant punch. Combining these tasty fruits
will also provide a good amount of magnesium, potassium, manganese, and vitamins A
and K as well as smaller amounts of other nutrients. Both fruits are also good for your eyes
and offer protection against macular degeneration.
