Watermelon Kiwi Refresher

There’s nothing like enjoying refreshing fruit on a hot summer day, and this watermelon kiwi refresher is definitely a new favorite of mine! It consists of layers of blended frozen kiwis and watermelon with some coconut water to really help hydrate and cool down. I think that watermelon and kiwis make the perfect summer fruit duo!

What you will need

Watermelon – This is the ultimate summer melon that is rich in antioxidants and is extremely hydrating.

Kiwis – This fruit is rich in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins like C, E, and K. Pairing kiwi with watermelon makes for a fun health supporting fruity drink!

Coconut Water – I love adding coconut water to my drinks because it’s a great natural source of electrolytes and has a nice sweet flavor.

Maple Syrup – If you prefer your drinks on the sweeter side, adding a little maple syrup or even monk fruit drops will elevate the drink.

Ice – We will blend the frozen fruit with some ice to bulk up the drink and keep it really cold.

How to make the watermelon kiwi refresher

First add the frozen kiwis, 1 cup of ice, 1/2 cup coconut water, and 1 tbsp maple syrup to a blender. Blend until a smooth and a slushy consistency forms. (If the mixture is too thick add a little more coconut water. Divide the kiwi mixture into 2 serving glasses then set aside.

Next, add the frozen watermelon, 1 cup ice, 1 cup coconut water, and 1 tbsp maple syrup to a blender. Blend until smooth and a slushy consistency forms.(Add more coconut water if it gets too thick.) Add the watermelon mixture over the kiwi mixture in the glass cups. Mix around the drink to blend a little and enjoy right away.
