Sparkling Watermelon Lemonade
From: Kami @ www.nobiggie.net/sparkling-watermelon-lemonade/
It’s watermelon season! It’s basically the best late night snack in the Summer. A big bowl of cold watermelon cubes from the fridge is the best! If you don’t consume it all in one sitting, you should make this…sparkling watermelon lemonade. This drink is tops when it comes to refreshing summer drinks.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice
4 cups watermelon juice reserve a few watermelon slices to garnish
1 1/2 cup sugar (you can add more or less, depending...)
2 liter sparkling water
1 bag pebble ice
Instructions
Blend the watermelon chunks, until smooth.
Press watermelon juice through a strainer and catch all the juice in a bowl, and discard whatever doesn’t make it through the strainer.
In a medium sized sauce pan add the watermelon juice with the sugar.
Bring mixture to a light simmer and stir until all the sugar is dissolved.
Pour into a heatproof glass pitcher.
Refrigerate until cold.
In a large glass jar with a wide mouth for a ladle, add lemon slices around the bottom wall.
Dump in about 1/3 of the bag of pebble ice, you can add more later as needed.
Add the lemon juice, sparkling water and sweetened watermelon juice.
Add in a few slices of watermelon as a colorful garnish.
Serve with a big ladle making sure each glass gets a bunch of pebble ice.
Garnish with a lemon slice or a small slice of watermelon…or both!
