    If you follow me on Instagram, then you know my favorite show right now is Alone. Have you seen it? It’s about wilderness experts who go to desolate places in the world alone and see how long they can last in nature.

    Grab some alone time, and make yourself a watermelon mint frose!

    SIMPLE INGREDIENTS, MINIMAL EFFORT THAT'S WHAT MAKE'S WATERMELON FROSE

    This recipe is easy-breezy. All you need to some Rosé wine or a good quality white wine. For this specific recipe, I’m using Sauvignon Blanc. It gives a nice citrus flavor to the watermelon frosé. You’ll also need a fresh mint, cilantro, lime juice, honey, and watermelon of course!

    Check out this fun Ice Cream recipe

    I made a delicious healthy simple syrup and I might be biased, but I think it brings this watermelon cilantro mint frosé to the next level.

    MAKE YOUR OWN HEALTHY SIMPLE SYRUP

    Making simple syrup at home is easy. Instead of white sugar, I use honey and water. Add some water and honey to a pot, then add the cilantro and mint leaves. Bring to a boil and simmer on low heat for 15-minutes. If you want the cilantro mint simple syrup to be extra flavorful, you can store it in the fridge overnight in a glass container.

    I use this cilantro mint simple syrup for all kinds of things, including tea! There are so many amazing things you can do with food at home.

    FROZEN WATERMELON IS A EASY AND AFFORDABLE TREAT

    Pro tip: Frozen watermelon is a simple and low-calorie dessert. I’ve actually been eating every night for dessert and it’s perfect for those hot summer nights.

      Had some friends over for a BBQ and I made these as it was just such a hot day! They went down a treat so lucky I made extra. I knew it would disappear really quickly! I made the mocktail version for the kids with sparkling apple juice and they loved it too!

      Oh gosh, it's finally getting hot here and watermelon and mint just sound so so refreshing. I might have to forego the cilantro since I'm one of the unlucky ones that have an aversion to the herb!
