Juice Recipe: Watermelon with fennel bulb and mint
Another day, another gym sesh… at home or driving there, energy is a must.
Cardio, lifting, squats, no matter; energy is the key to a good sweat.
Some water and powder in a shaker may do, but what’s the fun in that if instead you can have natural licorice flavored watermelon liquid fuel.
The sweet watermelon taste is laced with the licorice flavor of the fennel bulb which in turn is tamed by the lime and mint.
Bright crimson color with a fluid texture, extra refreshing if cold.
The swift delivery of energy makes this easy to make pre-workout juice a winner.
