It is useful to have some almond milk at home for this recipe. You can buy almond milk from the supermarket, but if you prefer your own recipe, that’s even better.

Almonds are one of the healthiest foods out there and in this case we mainly use the nut for its magnesium content. Magnesium is a good nutrient for combating fatigue, headaches, joint pain, etc…

How do you make this smoothie?

• You need two slices of melon. Go for a melon that is in season and  make sure it is fresh. Therefore, do not buy ready-made melon juice in the store. When making these juices, all nutrients are often lost. So always go for fresh melons or juices.
• Cut the melon into pieces and put it in the blender.
• Then add the ten grapes and the almond milk. Make sure you remove the skins from the grapes and that there are no seeds in them so that the drink becomes as smooth as possible. Grape skin does have great properties though.

• Blend the ingredients together until a homogeneous liquid is formed, then chill the drink in the refrigerator before drinking.
