Studies have shown watermelon juice can be twice as hydrating as water, but it’s also packed with nutrients delivering more nutrients per calorie than many other fruits; boasting high levels of vitamins A and C along with some of the most important antioxidants in nature. Plus, the seeds are rich in selenium and zinc so blending the fruit into a drink maximizes the nutritional value.
Cucumbers are another hydrating fruit. I’ve added ginger to add extra flavour. And there’s more coconut water to give a potassium hit. This smoothie may also help reduce the intensity of both hangovers and headaches.
