To our friends in the southern hemisphere, summer is here! Although La Nina is slightly raining on our parade, there's no denying that things are heating up. Summer for us in Byron Bay means beach everyday, warm balmy nights, sunset picnics, sweaty lighthouse runs and almond iced lattes.
Summer means more time in the sun and while we're all about getting a healthy amount of Vitamin D, there's no denying that our skin and bodies need some extra TLC during the warmer months.
The best way to do that? Meet the Sunseeker Spritz. Our answer to naturally hydrated, nourished and protected summer skin.
Sunseeker Spritz
Ingredients (serves approx 5)
- 2 cups watermelon, cut into pieces
- ¼ Tbsp. fresh lime juice or to taste
- 4 teaspoon Ritual Collagen
- ¼ cup sparkling water
- ¼ cup still water
- Optional: Elderflower mixer to taste (we recommend this brand) or sub honey
- Lime slices for garnish
Method:
Add watermelon, lime juice, still water and elderflower/honey to blender and blend on high for 30 seconds.
Pour juice into your serving jug through a strainer to take out any chunky bits of melon.
Just before serving, mix in the collagen and then mix in the sparkling water. Add in lime slices for decoration.
Notes:
Be sure not to blend the collagen as it will make the juice go foamy. Also make sure to add the sparkling water after the collagen. We recommend tasting as you go as the sweetness of the watermelon will dictate how much elderflower or honey you need.
Cheers!
