Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
½ cup white sugar
½ cup water
4 cups cubed watermelon
3 cups cold water
½ cup fresh lemon juice
6 cups ice cubes
Directions
Place watermelon into a blender; cover and puree until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve.
Bring sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in 3 cups of cold water and lemon juice.
Divide ice into 12 glasses; scoop 2 to 3 tablespoons of watermelon puree over ice, then top with lemonade. Gently stir before serving.
Cook’s Note
This drink can be made into an adult cocktail by adding a little vodka.
