Summer highlights are parties, beaches, barbecues, and fun. However, it is essential to remain energized and stay hydrated during summer. As spending long hours outside can lead to dehydration, skin sensitivities, deficiencies and more.

Therefore, drink the following beverages and eat the fruits to live out loud during summer time:

Watermelon

Quench your thirst and hydration needs with some watermelon juice. The cooling properties of the fruit make it a hydration hero like no other. You can make a tangy mixer, a chilly sorbet, or simply a watermelon mint juice on a warm day to lower your body heat and refuel you,

Mango

Mangoes on their own or in a beverage or in a fruit salad are a tropical blessing. Being rich in beta-carotene, vitamin C, and A, mangos are highly refreshing and are known to prevent cancer. Mango sorbets, cordials and smoothies are a great way to enjoy the supposed “King of Fruits.”

Pineapples

Pineapple is an excellent source of Vitamin C if anything even more than oranges. Snacking on pineapple slices during summer will boost your immunity and lower the bloating from all the barbecues you have been eating. You can add it to a fancy basil leaves salad or make a summer drink to sip on. Just don’t put it on pizza.

Berry Spritzer

With rising temperatures, staying hydrated is the number one priority for all individuals. Whip up a coconut water based chilled berry spritzer with some lemongrass. The drink is rich in nutrients as the berries contain antioxidants and lemongrass contains antimicrobial properties to fight off disease-causing microbes. You can also add a few sprigs of mint leaves to make the spritzer more refreshing.

Note: Always use washed and end crushed lemongrass stalks. And if you don’t have lemongrass, replace it with lime.

Avocado

Nothing is as naturally cool and soft as a ripe avocado. Overloaded with monounsaturated fats and other nutrients, avocado goes well with a number of summertime foods. From tacos and guacamole to nutty avocado salads and whole wheat toast spread Avocados are a versatile addition to all healthy diets.

Lemonade

The citric drink acts as a cleanser and saliva stimulant. All over the world, people make all different kinds of lemonade during summer months because the degree of sourness differs from culture to culture.
