Flavored with mint, it pairs well with vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers, or fruits like watermelon for a unique flavor combination.
  • Olive Oil: Olive oil, especially in its extra virgin form, is a powerful source of health benefits due to its high content of polyphenol antioxidants and monounsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid).
