Watermelon Sparklers

Looking for a fun and creative way to enjoy some of the most healing foods available this 4th of July or for any other holiday or celebration? These watermelon sparklers are fun to make, beautiful to look at, and even better to eat!

Melon is one of the most alkalizing and hydrating foods. The fruit’s highly bioavailable and bioactive trace mineral count is responsible for driving electrolytes higher than normal, making them easily usable by the body. In return, the body’s detoxification processes become amplified, driving out traces of DDT, other pesticides, herbicides, and heavy metals from deep within the organs. High in silica, melon is an excellent food to restore ligaments, joints, bones, teeth, connective tissue, and tendons. Melon is also one of the most powerful glucose balancers, working to prevent insulin resistance and lower elevated A1C levels.

Watermelon Sparklers

Ingredients:

For the sparklers:

• 1 watermelon
• 1/2 small canary or cantaloupe melon
• 1/2 small honeydew melon
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 10-12 wooden skewers
• Optional sparkler fairy dust ingredients:
• 2 tbsp lime zest
• 2 tbsp blonde coconut sugar

Directions:

Cut the watermelon into slices, about half an inch thick. Using a star-shaped cutter, cut the watermelon into stars. Set aside.

Using a small melon-baller, make balls out of the canary and honeydew melons. 

Skewer the melon balls, alternating with blueberries and top with a watermelon star. 

If you wish to make the optional sparkler fairy dust, simply mix the lime zest and blonde coconut sugar together and sprinkle above and over the watermelon stars on the sparklers.
