Watermelon is a very cool fruit perfect for summer. They are popular for there crunchy texture and for there coolness, so i dint want to make something which is going to change the crunchiness and the coolness of it.....So i thought of making something special to go along with it......And came up with this dip.
I mix cream cheese and tangy sour cream and lime juicy for some freshness. I also add some honey for sweetness. For more freshness and brightness i also add mint and chill it for some time. And serve with watermelon.
This is a very refreshing dip for summer fruits.......especially for watermelon because the crunch from the watermelon and the creaminess from the dip marry together greatly...And become a perfect appetizer or a evening snacks for summer... Coooooolllllllll.....
