Blueberry Watermelon Lemonade {Recipe}
Friday, July 15, 2016Watermelon is king during the summer months, and today I have a refreshing drink recipe for your long, hot summer days: a Blueberry Watermelon Lemonade!
You can easily make an individual drink into a cocktail by adding 1-2 oz. of your favorite vodka or rum to each glass and stir, or you can make the entire pitcher into cocktails by adding 8-12 oz. of alcohol.
Makes: approx. 1 gallon
Ingredients:
- 6 1⁄2 c. water, divided
- 4 medium to large lemons
- 3⁄4 c. sugar (or sweetener of choice)
- 3 c. seedless watermelon, cut into chunks
- 1 c. blueberries
Directions:
- Start by juicing your lemons. 4 lemons should provide about 8 Tbsp. of juice.
- In a large pitcher, combine 4 cups of the water, lemon juice, and sugar. Stir well until sugar is dissolved.
- Cut your watermelon into slices, cut off the rind, and dice into chunks.
- Add watermelon, blueberries and the remaining 2 1⁄2 cups of water to a blender and blend on high until smooth.
- Add the watermelon mix to the lemonade mix and stir well.
- Serve over ice, with rimming sugar if desired.
Keep this fresh juice refrigerated and drink within two days (not going to be hard to finish!)
Definitely refreshing. Definitely delicious. Enjoy!
