Here is yet another summer coolant to beat the sweltering heat! I was asking my kids for their preference for their evening snack when my little one saw the huge watermelon sitting on the counter and screamed that she wanted watermelon lemonade. Wherever did she come across that? 


I found that the taste of sweet lime juice mixed with lemon juice gave a unique taste to the drink!
