Cucumber Apple and Calamansi Shake

One of the best time of the year in the Philippines is SUMMER. Most of the families are going to their vacation places either in their own provinces or somewhere where they can have a place  to bond, to relax and to enjoy the long days of vacation. Being a tropical country, the summer in Philippines brings high temperature and humidity that even when you are just sitting it can make you sweat.

In order to fight the hot weather, ice cold drinks, shakes and smoothies are readily available anywhere. These refreshing drinks do not only give you a cool feeling but help you in repleneshing the lost water from your body beacuse of sweating.

So I made my own experiment of fruits to make a good refreshment. And this is what I have made.

Cucumber-Apple-Calamansi Shake
 
Ingredients:
1 medium size cucumber
1 apple
8 pcs calamansi
4 cups of crushed ice
1 cup or less of refined sugar
 
How:
1. Remove all the seeds of apple,cucumber and calamansi
2. Put all ingredients in a blender.
3. Top with slice calamansi. 

You have the option to peel or not to peel the cucumber. But I only peel the 50% of the cucumber.

REFRESH.REPLENISH.ENJOY.
