Wild about Watermelon
Low calorie, super easy and inexpensive Watermelon drinks to help cool you during the dog days of Summer! Besides being tasty, Watermelon is a good source of vitamin C, lycopene and beta carotene. If you have extra watermelon, you can freeze it for more slushes in the future.
We love this super-simple Watermelon Slushie during the summer. If you have company coming then just pour into in a pretty glass with lime wedge.
