Drinks For One

Produce Market
 Okay if I'm not drinking water i drink coconut water, green smoothies and some homemade fruit juices. I love coconut water and i love opening the young thai coconuts myself. The only down side is that that they are quite expensive I got one for $1.79 at a Produce market by my house, which is the top photo, and i got one for $1.50 at Sprouts Farmers Market. I never really noticed if the water is usually clear or not because its so good i drink it from the coconut but the one i got from the produce market had less water then Sprouts and was really "foggy" but i didn't really taste a difference. I definitely like Sprouts coconuts because they are cheaper and have more but then again this was only one coconut so i think i just got lucky....

Sprouts Farmers Market
Watermelon juice
I saw that The Sweetest Vegan had a video on watermelon juice and i had never really thought of making watermelon juice because i like eating watermelon as it is. Well i wanted to try it and it was so simple and easy to make and it gets you really full. All i did was put 1-2 cups of cut up watermelon in a blender and a little bit of water to get it started then you put it through a strainer and done! You have some refreshing watermelon. Perfect if you're having a picnic.

I've been obsessed with buying young Thai coconuts they are so good and fresh and this time i actually opened it myself and i think i did a pretty damn good job at it! Well for sure i will still be buying these and they are not that expensive so it's all good!
