Key Elements Of A Paleo Frosé
This recipe elevates its wine-infused counterpart by using honey, lemon juice, and fresh mint instead of added sugars. You get the same sweet and tangy flavors of traditional rosé without that sickly sweet feeling.
We also swapped the boring ice in favor of frozen watermelon cubes. This will keep things light and sweet to the very last sip without watering down your drink. Plus, it’ll pack in extra vitamins to help stave off dehydration.
To make the watermelon ice cubes, place the fresh chunks of watermelon onto a tray lined with parchment paper. Set them in the freezer overnight or at least four hours in advance.
How To Upgrade Your Drink With Collagen
To make this watermelon frosé a cut above the rest, we toss in a few scoops of collagen powder. Its mild flavor blends easily with any beverage and is a simple way to work in your daily dose of protein. Try adding it to your morning coffee, lattes, and smoothies, too.
Collagen also plays an important role in your body’s connective tissues. A few scoops of collagen powder a day can help improve skin elasticity, ease inflammation, and improve digestion.
For the best quality, look for grass-fed collagen without any artificial flavoring or sweeteners.
Helpful Tips To Get Started:
