Once upon a time I entered a watermelon eating competition. I had a strategy, a vision and a plan and I still didn't win. No worries because who doesn't love to stuff juicy wedges of melon in their mouth on a hot summers day?
Melon has to be the best thirst quencher for your buck when it comes to fruit. We've all seen the behemoth watermelon for sale in the store but have you ever wondered what the easiest way is to cut it? You obviously need one of these propellor-sized melon slicers! It's the same idea as the tiny apple slicers we all have, but this thing reminds me of an air-conditioning fan from the Empire State Building, It's wierdly huge! Check out the video for a "What the heck" moment and feel free to skip past the melon rubbing part!
I think I've found an awesome way to keep the kids hydrated this summer and help our California drought problems at the same time. Just make a pitcher of this cantaloupe agua fresca and keep it in the fridge. It has to be the easiest thing ever to make and tastes so fresh and clean. I also just want to throw it out to you, that a shot of Tequila added to a glass of this and blended with some ice is a perfectly acceptable adult thirst-quencher. If you don't fell like knocking back glasses of sweet boozy cocktails, just pour it over some ice cubes and enjoy. All that's in it is melon, kiwi, water and agave. So simple and perfect for any outdoor summer barbecues!
The perfect refreshing drink for hot summer days. Melon and kiwi agua frescais so simple to make! You may have to do half of a melon at a time if your blender is on the small side.
