How To: Make Strawberry Watermelon Lemonade
Fresh watermelon and homemade lemonade are two of my favorite eats in the summer, so why not combine them??
Get your hands on a nice, juicy watermelon and make sure you save a few pieces to whip up this drink!
- Step 1: Juice the lemons and place in the fridge to cool.
- Step 2: Puree the watermelon in a blender and stir in the lemon juice.
- Step 3: Over medium high heat, dissolve the sugar into 1 cup of water to make a simple syrup. Allow it to cool to room temperature and then place in the fridge to continue cooling.
- Step 4: Combine juice, simple syrup, and 7 cups of cold water. Stir well. Pour over ice and garnish with blueberries.
