Ok so since my ode to autumn, the weather seems to have woken up and London is currently in the final throws of summer.
So for this late summer sunshine, there is only one thing I go to to keep myself hydrated (other than, of course, water) and that is WATERMELON.
Watermelon is incredibly cheap right now, I managed to get a quarter of a fruit for £2.50 from my local turkish food shop and this has lasted me over week considering I only use a couple of slices at a time.
Easiest thing in the world, cut two slices (or however much you need) and slice the fruit roughly into a blender. Discard the tough skin. Don't worry about de-seeding, the seeds usually fall to the bottom of the blender anyway and don't end up in the drink.
Add a couple of ice cubes, and about a quarter of a glass of water and blend! It's that simple! It is so delicious and refreshing and perfect for this last gasp of summer.
Cheers!
(I personally don't drink, but I have also heard this is good with a shot of vodka or gin in it. Try it and let me know how it works out!)
