watermelon lemonade is as easy to make as it is to love.  It makes the perfect summer mocktail for a casual family dinner or dressed up for even your fanciest guests.
The weather is starting to heat up, more and more fresh summer goodness is showing up on store shelves, and my craving for all of it is getting out of control.  My latest must have lately is lemonade and agua fresca, and this watermelon lemonade is one of the best I’ve ever had.
This summer classic is as easy to make as it is to love.  Feeling fancy? Substitute the cold water for sparkling and add a sugar rim for the perfect summer mocktail.

You will need

1/4 cup (2 ounces) fresh-squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup (4 ounces) fresh pureed watermelon with seeds removed
3 tablespoons (1 1/2 ounces) simple syrup
3/4 cup (6 ounces) cold water

Mix it all together and serve over ice.
