Let us not forget all the men and women who have gone before us and those who continue to fight for the most precious right that we have...FREEDOM! Here is an easy-to-make, wonderful drink to serve at your Fourth of July celebrations.
Watermelon Lemonade
- 8 cups watermelon cut into chunks
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice
- 31/2 cups water
- 1 cup sugar
- ice
- fresh mint sprigs
Blend watermelon in a blender or food processor in batches.
Strain watermelon liquid through a strainer into a large pitcher. Using a wisk helps the liquid pass through the strainer quicker.
Dispose of any solids left in the strainer and repeat.
Add lemon juice, water and sugar and stir until sugar is dissolved.
Chill for two hours, add ice and fresh mint for garnish.
It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you.
