5 basil leaves

1 rosemary sprig

1 lemon

1 tsp black salt

Here’s How You Can Put It All Together

Step 1: Wash, peel and cut the watermelon into cubes.

Step 2: Juice the watermelon cubes and strain it.

Step 3: As it is straining, take your glasses and rim them with black salt.

Step 4: Now, add chopped basil, chopped mint, soaked chia seeds and the lemon juice to the glasses.

Step 5: Pour over the strained, chilled watermelon juice in the glasses.

Step 6: Garnish with a sprig of rosemary for a herby aroma.

Pro Tip

Straining the watermelon juice is the tasty way, but leaving it un-strained and the fibre in is the healthy way!
