Healthy drink recipe: watermelon mint fizz

Well, we made it to Thirsty Thursday everyone! 

If you're both thirsty and ready to get your Thursday rollin', I think you'll thoroughly enjoy this article. Before getting into the minty details, I would first like to announce the 
newest edition to Twenty-Fit and Fab:

Drumroll, please... 
Courtney's Corner!

(props to mom for the name idea)


Basically, Courtney is the coolest chef you'll ever meet. She's extremely talented at cooking and can make even the most blah of foods taste spectacular. Since I'm definitely not an expert at cooking, unless you're a fan of oatmeal and pb&j sandwiches, I've decided to leave all things food to the foodie master herself. 
Keep an eye out for Court's latest FIT and FAB recipes under her label, "Courtney's Corner," and enjoy!      


Part 1: Watermelon mint fizz! Check back later this week for the perfect, complimentary meal!  
Watermelon Mint Fizz
(1-2 servings)

3-4 oz Watermelon Juice (FIT)
Juice of 1/2 of lime (FIT)
2-3 leaves of Mint (FIT)
Sparkingling Wine (FAB!)
Agave, optional

First, mince the Mint (chop finely) and put at the bottom of a glass. Take the handle of a wooden spoon and muddle the mint, by placing the HANDLE into the glass and Smooshing (very technical term) the mint to release flavor. 

Then  take the watermelon and place in a bowl. Now is the time to let out a little aggression by smashing the watermelon with the spoon side of the wooden spoon, releasing as much juice as possible. Strain juice into the glass with mint. Top with juice from half of Lime, and Sparking Wine to your taste! Drink!! If it is not as sweet as you would like, add a little agave and lightly stir.
