Skin Glow Smoothie: Watermelon Cantaloupe Cooler

watermelon smoothie
Nothing says summer better than a slice of watermelon. 

Juicy, cool, and refreshing, watermelon also happens to be packed with Vitamin A (as beta carotene), Vitamin C, and lycopene, all anti-oxidants that squash free-radicals and help prevent disease.

Add in cantaloupe, lime, and fresh mint, and you've got yourself a perfect smoothie to kickstart your morning.
