SUMMER WATERMELON LEMONADE

SUMMER WATERMELON LEMONADE

Lemonade… .. ahhhhh my most loved summer drink! I've made a couple of lemonade drinks here on the blog, (the most loved so far has certainly been this raspberry peach form) yet I understood some time back that I'd never made a rendition with my most loved summer organic product… watermelon!

What's your most loved summer natural product? I've constantly cherished watermelon, despite the fact that different melons are incredible as well… and strawberries. Allows simply concur that I'm uncertain lol. Of the considerable number of things I've passed on to my children (willfulness and awkwardness… hack… ), one thing the two of them certainly have is my adoration for watermelon. They go insane for it! Indeed, as long as it's either a seedless watermelon or we've taken the dark seeds out.

Amusing thing… back when I was a child, I was totally persuaded that on the off chance that I ate one of those dark seeds, a watermelon would develop in my stomach. I have no clue who revealed to me that, or why I trusted them, yet there was NO way I would eat one of those seeds! Did you ever believe that growing up? Simply imagine that you did as such I'm not by any means the only weirdo alright?

This is one of those beverages that will make you have an inclination that you're on a parlor seat at the shoreline, a cool wind in your hair, with not a consideration on the planet… it possesses a flavor like sweet summer people! On a side note, doesn't that shoreline situation sound great? We haven't gone on a get-away in a few years and that is going to change one year from now!
