The summer break is in full swing, giving drivers a chance to rest after a busy first half of the season. Before the break, Max Verstappen unveiled his own signature drink, as showcased in footage shared on Instagram.
Currently enjoying a vacation in Corsica and Sardinia with Kelly Piquet and his family, Verstappen mentioned after the Hungarian Grand Prix that he was looking forward to the holiday to spend more time with loved ones.
The Dutchman’s summery drink was featured in a video posted by Red Bull Racing on Instagram.
It can be seen how Verstappen makes a juice from mango and pineapple and shakes it together in a cocktail shaker.
"I'm just afraid it's gonna come out," Verstappen says, to then add "It smells good".
