A slight change on this recipe

Brianna H - July 24, 2007 01:33:34 PM PST

I read about a similar recipe in SELF Magazine which I actually enjoyed more! Blend 4 cups seedless watermelon with the juice of 1 large lemon, a few ice cubes, 2 tbs sugar, and 1-2 fresh mint leaves! Serve over ice!
The mint is the real trick - it makes the drink more refreshing! It is now my family\'s favorite summer drink! Enjoy!

Finally a recipe!

I saw this recipe years ago and loved it. Glad I can finally have something with measurements to give to friends. Try freezing the watermelon instead of using ice or as much ice.

Au Naturale Watermelon

Taste test the sweetness of the watermelon before adding any extra sugars. I found most fresh water to be full of juicy natural sweetness and there is no necessary to add any sweetning agent.

One slight change

Use simple syrup rather than sugar. It mixes better than sugar in cold beverages. One part sugar to one part boiling water, stir until it becomes a liquid. I keep a container of it in my refrigerator for all cold summer drinks, like Ice Tea.

So many ways to drink watermelon, so little time!

A great way to eat the watermelon that is a little grainy or over ripe. I used honey instead of sugar and sweetened lime juice for mixing drinks. Yum!

Nice Surprise

What a great way to use up leftover watermelon! I actually had previously cubed and frozen a bunch of it....used that and omitted the ice altogether. Upped the water a little, replaced the sugar with 2 T Splenda Also, as Brianna had suggested, I added 2 mint leaves. That made all the difference.
I don\'t see why you couldn\'t add a little vodka and make a melon-tini...

altered it a little

jferstok - August 2, 2007 06:25:17 AM PST

I substituted one cup of the watermelon for some fresh pineapple and added a single serving size dannon la creme vanilla yogurt. Very yummy and quite tangy for a morning meal. A peppy way to start my day!
