Ingredients you’ll need

• One small seedless watermelon – to pick the perfect watermelon, one option is that you can tap on it to determine if it sounds hollow. Additionally, look for watermelons that have a smooth surface and a cream-colored under-belly.
• 6 kiwis – kiwis are ready to use when they have a little give when you press them. They should feel firm but not rock hard.
• 2 cucumbers – when shopping for cucumbers, select one that is well-shaped and medium to dark green in color. Avoid cucumbers that are yellow or puffy, have sunken, water-soaked areas, or are wrinkled at their tips.
• 1 bunch of fresh mint – fresh mint is superior in flavor. Look for mint that is free from dark spots or yellowing.
