Frozen Strawberry Watermelon Lemonade
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
It’s not too sweet, full of fresh strawberry flavor shining through, with watermelon and some bright, tart lemon.
Ingredients
- strawberry sugar for rimming the glasses, optional
- 2 16- oz. packages Driscoll's fresh strawberries hulled
- 2 c. chopped seedless watermelon
- juice and zest of 1 large lemon
- 2 T. sugar or more to taste
- 4 c. crushed ice
- additional fresh strawberries plus lemon wedges, for garnish if desired
Instructions
- For the rimmed sugar on the glasses, run the cut side of a lemon wedge around the rim of a glass. Dip rim into a small bowl of strawberry sugar. Repeat with remaining glasses and set aside.
- In a blender, purée strawberries, watermelon, lemon juice and zest, and sugar. Test for flavor and sweetness. If it needs a bit more sweetness, add sugar 1 tablespoon at a time. If you would like more lemon flavor, add more juice and zest. I don't call for much sugar because I didn't intend for this to be a super sweet and sugary lemonade. I wanted the fruit flavors to shine through, with minimal sugar. But adjust to your liking.
- Add crushed ice and blend until desired consistency is reached. Divide between glasses and garnish with strawberries and lemon wedges.
