In the Reboot Kitchen: The Melon Shake

Rockmelon (Cantaloupe) is at the end of the season here in Australia but due to the extended warm weather there is an abundance of them. I love this fruit as it is light, refreshing and delicious and great in juices and smoothies! Cantaloupe season is coming soon to the Northern hemisphere and the smoothie can be bookmarked if you are a cantaloupe lover.

Rockmelon (cantaloupe) is high in folic acid, vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium and fiber while the banana is high in potassium, magnesium, fiber and many other goodies!
