Well you all know I love to juice, and I love my Breville juicer.  I use it daily.  This is perfect for hot days like we are having this summer here in Texas.

I am sure it will be equally delicious that way! This juice would be great for backyard parties. Add a little vodka and you have a great adult beverage too. Next time I make it, I am going to pour the mixture into my popsicle molds .

Refreshing Watermelon Punch

I love my juicer.  Ever since I bought it, I have been juicing every morning.  I feel great.  The other day, I bought a huge watermelon from Sprouts.  So I decided to make this punch.  The taste of watermelon instantly takes me back to summer BBQs when I was a kid.  My parents used to have big summer parties and watermelon was always a staple.

This is easy to make and very refreshing.  I loved that it is a “juice” I can give my kids.  They loved it too!  If you don’t have a juicer, you can do it in a Vitamix and strain, or even leave it chunky.  You could also make some yummy popsicles using these molds
as well!

My batch made a pretty small amount. About enough to fill a large mason jar with no ice. If you are making this for a party, I would suggest doubling the batch. It should keep in the fridge for at least 4 days. Enjoy!
