This drink was absolute perfection with our burger dinner Saturday evening before Mother's Day. It's been pretty warm here the past week and a glass of ice cold Watermelon Lemonade really cools you off. We all loved the flavor combo. Eric couldn't get enough of it. His usual favorites are water and orange juice, so to see him going back for seconds, thirds, and fourths of this...well, it was easy to see that this recipe had earned a "keeper" status in our house. The original recipe doesn't mention straining, however I chose to strain the pureed watermelon over a fine mesh strainer to thin it out. I also left the mint out, because hubby isn't a fan.

What a refreshing beverage. I usually don't make anything with watermelon because it is my favorite and I think it is perfect as is, but I will have to try this one:)

My mouth is watering! Adding watermelon and lemons to shopping list right now. I'd like to try a taste test of mint and non mint versions. I have much of it growing in my garden and I love it so.
