In addition, if you make them ahead of time and keep them in the fridge, they will taste and look good for a couple of hours. Then you can take them out of the fridge to set up on the table and serve right before the party starts! Lovely Mango is here to help and we would love to see the fruit gifts on everyone’s tables!

Also, keep in mind the benefits of eating watermelon and cucumber. They are not only very high in water and keep you hydrated, but they also help fight inflammation and contain anti-oxidant properties. Check out our article on 7 reasons why hydrating from watermelon can benefit you.

How to boost your afternoons with one simple ingredient

Cucumber capsules – that is how you boost your afternoons!

How to boost your afternoons

Sometimes in the afternoons, we feel a little tired or sleepy, and we need a boost to wake us up and keep the day going! Therefore, we usually grab a cup of coffee, drink sugary drinks, or eat sweets, like a chocolate bar or cookies.

But if you are looking for something on the healthier side and that will give you the same results, eat cucumbers! My kids, for instance, love to eat them, any time of the day! They are sweet and good for you. Cucumbers have enough carbohydrates and B vitamins that will help you feel more energetic. Cucumber juice can also be very helpful!

Before watching the video on how to boost your afternoons by making our easy cucumber capsules check out our post on snacking on grapes. We should always make sure to have healthy snacks, like fresh fruits, available and ready to eat. Now let’s learn these easy steps on how to keep your cucumbers easily ready in the refrigerator for a boost of energy.
