Honeydew-Grape-Watermelon Milkshake - a Cool post!

This milkshake was inspired from a fruits-combo in an article that I received from Aarti Vivek of Nalabagham. The blend of honeydew melon, grapes, watermelon and milk was mentioned to be rich in vitamin C + Vitamin B2 that increase cell activity and strengthen body immunity. The combo sounded intriguing as they were not something that I would have thought of bringing together. I found a balance of the fruits that suited our tastes well. The shake really was delicious and refreshing, with each of the fruit contributing its distinct flavor to the milkshake! The milk enhanced the total flavor a lot (and I had doubted it would go together)!! We had it for breakfast along with some toasted bread and preserves. The grape skin remnants would come up if allowed to sit for long. If you are not fond of that, strain before serving (we didnt). Experiment to find your favorite taste balance. I would definitely make this again! Enjoy!! :-)

Recipe (Serves 2) :

Watermelon - 1 1/2 cup, scooped
Honeydew melon - 1/2 cup, scooped
Grapes - 1 cup, whole
Milk - 1 cup

Method:

Pour the milk into a blender and add the rest of the ingredients.

Blend until smooth and well-mixed.

Serve immediately.

If using unrefrigerated fruits, add a few ice cubes to the blender.

Tips:

1. Strain the shake before use, if desired.
2. I used green grapes, the original articles showed purple/red grapes.
