Sweltering summer heat, sizzling football heat * -- countered by rosy fresh and frothy Watermelon juice!Blend together 6 cups of Watermelon chunks with seeds picked out, a tight fistful of fresh pepper mint leaves, one fresh lime squeezed and 1/4 cup sugar. I crush 1 cup of ice also.
Cut big yellow lemons into slices and add to the serving jar. Serve cold.
* To me, too many handsome men running across the television set ;)

heat the beat. err.. beat the heat.
adding 2 cups of cucumber juice can make this a kidney and bladder cleanser (dont bother about the taste. cucumber is almost as tasteless as water.)

You rock LG!!
I have half of a big watermelon sitting in the fridge. We are tired of eating it the normal way- cutting into chunks and eat it with a fork. The watermelon splash sounds cool. I will try it. I hate the seed picking part... Why didn't I buy the seedless one??

LG, too many handsome men running across the television set? You bet. Definitely need your drink to cool down. And your picture can cool down my eyes. ;-) (I hope your hubby does not read your blog. At least not the comments section!)

LG, this is very like Mexican agua fresca. You can add sparkling water to give it a fizz. Very refreshing and perfect for scorchers!
