Otherwise known as glacier blood, watermelon snow is found worldwide in mountains and polar regions. The pink-red snow has a faintly fruity smell but is reported to have laxative effects if eaten.
The watermelon colour comes from freshwater green algae called chlamydomonas nivalis. In summer, the algae produce a red pigment to protect themselves from the Sun’s intense rays.
