Watermelon lemonade recipe: easy & refreshing
July 11, 2015When the weather heats up, there’s nothing better than sipping a cold, refreshing drink. I love lemonade during this time of year. There’s something about the tart flavor of lemon paired with the sweetness of sugar in an ice-cold drink that’s truly perfect! And this combo today is even better, because it features that fruit that is so iconic of Summer: watermelon.
This watermelon lemonade is so easy to make- it only requires THREE ingredients and maybe 5-10 minutes of prep! The flavor of watermelon is strong and beautiful and so refreshing! I hope you try this one!

Foolishly got rid of food processor years ago, can I use a blender? This looks so cool and refreshing. Quite often I’ll have piece of watermelon for my lunch in summer, fills me up and keeps me from eating other things that are not good for me, have terrible sweet tooth.
Glad you shared this recipe. Happy weekend
You can definitely use a blender! I love watermelon and have it in the house almost every day in the Summer! Such a refreshing (and filling) fruit! Thanks so much for your comment, JaneEllen!
