mint watermelon juice

We aren’t doing much to celebrate this year, but one thing there’s always time for is a good summer cocktail. I don’t even know if this needs a recipe — blend about 4-5 cups (a blender-full, basically) of watermelon cubes with a few leaves of mint, some ice if not chilled, ice cream if you like it (I added a few tablespoons of strawberry ice cream, just because) and garnish with mint (and blueberries, if it’s Independence Day!)  And I guess that’s just a mocktail, so — if it’s your inclination, then also add a splash of vodka, gin, champagne, or anything else that floats your boat. 🙂

Hope you’re having a happy Fourth! 🙂 Thank you for reading!
