BONUS! Watermelon Mojitos!

Summer is a great time for Watermelon and drinks so why not put them together! I found a recipe in Everyday Food for this and was really excited to try it.


Watermelon Mojitos
1/2 small seedless watermelon, cut into chunks
1 bunch of mint
1 Tbs super fine sugar
1 1/4 cup white rum

1. in blender puree watermelon. pour through a time mesh sieve into a liquid measuring cup. pressing solids to extract as much liquid as possible (3 cups)
2. in a large container, combine mint, sugar and lime. with the back of a spoon crush min and lime until sugar is dissolved. add water melon juice and rum, fill container with ice. stir to combine, serve over more ice with mint sprigs.





Ok first things first let me just say YUM! this is such a yummy drink. The whole cutting up the watermelon and getting the juice is tedious work though so if you can find (or there is such thing as) watermelon juice I suggest that. Not a concentrate though it wouldn't be as good that way. But I'm sitting here now still drinking it and loving it. It is a wonderful summer day drink for hot weather. very refreshing.

Be safe when you drink.
