Watermelon Lemonade... so delicious!

Watermelon Lemonade


1 cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons; don't forget to freeze the zest for other recipes)
2 cups fresh watermelon puree, strained
1/2 cup simple syrup*
3/4 cup (6 ounces) cold water

Stir it all together and serve over ice. Garnish it with a thin watermelon or lemon wedge, if you’re feeling fancy.

Makes 1 pitcher.

Simple syrup: Mix one part sugar with one part water.  Heat until sugar dissolves completely.
