Watermelon is the quint essential summer fruit, and it pairs even better with mint. I decided that I wanted to give a go at freezing watermelon. I was surprised at how amazing this drink was. It happened by pure experimentation, and I am so happy I tried it. It is cool and refreshing, which makes it the perfect drink for these hot summer days.
If you get a chance to try it, tag me and let me know what you think!
