COOKING TIME: 5 min

TOTAL TIME: 2 hr

4 SERVING

Ingredients:

4 cup Watermelon, diced and frozen
2 Large Kiwi, diced and frozen
1 cup Almond milk
Honey Roasted Almonds
2 tbsp. Coconut oil
1/2 cup Honey
1/4 tsp. Fine salt
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
2 cup Raw, whole almonds
1 large Lime, zest/juice
Garnish
2 spring Mint
4 wedges Lime
12 tbsp. Agave syrup, if needed

Directions:

Step 1

Dice and freeze the watermelon and kiwi on a baking sheet for at least 2 hours. Use immediately or store indefinitely in an air-tight container in the freezer.

Step 2

For the Almonds: Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Heat a small saucepan over medium/low heat. Add honey, coconut oil, vanilla and salt. Whisk to combine and salt to dissolve. Remove from heat and toss with almonds in a large bowl. Place on a parchment-lined sheet and back for 10-12 minutes, stirring if the outside nuts/honey start to darken. Remove from heat and allow to cool (the sugar will continue to cook so if it is getting too dark, switch the sheet tray for one that is not hot).

Step 3

Save a few pieces of watermelon and kiwi for garnish. Blend remaining ingredients except for agave syrup. Taste for sweetness and if desired, add some agave if needed.

Step 4

Enjoy and relax!
