Watermelon-Strawberry Summer Drink

Simple, refreshing, and easy to make this watermelon-strawberry drink is perfect for a hot day. Watermelon makes a great base because there is so much liquid. Blended together with sweet strawberries, lime, and mint it is summer in your mouth!  I'll whip up two of these for me and my husband after he comes home from working in the hot summer sun. 

Watermelon Strawberry Summer Drink

5 ice cream scoops of icy cold watermelon 

6 whole strawberries

3 mint leaves

juice of one lime

water

I used my NutriBullet which makes this drink extra nutritious because it extracts the nutrients. With extraction, you get the health benefits of eating whole fruits and vegetables. In other words, you are drinking the pulp, the seeds, and skins. This drink can also be made in a blender.

Place all the ingredients inside the tall cup of the NutriBullet, and add water up to the max line.  Extract for no longer than one minute.  If you are using a blender hull the strawberries and use ice cubes.

Pour into a glass garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve. 

   This also makes a refreshing cocktail!   

 I like it with vodka!

To add more mint flavor rip a mint leaf in half and rub it around the rim of the glass.
