This drink is best in the summertime, when watermelons are at their sweetest and most flavorful. For cooling off and rehydrating on a hot day, there is simply nothing better. Because watermelons are huge, relatively inexpensive, and have a high water content, they make a good base for drinks. Experiment with using different varieties of tart and sweet apples.

Ingredients

　　6 cups coarsely chopped seeded watermelon

　　2 apples, cored and coarsely chopped

　　1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice, or more to taste

　　1 cup ice

　　Blend 1 cup of the watermelon in a blender until liquid. Add the rest of the watermelon, the apples, lime juice, and ice, and blend until smooth. Taste and add more lime, if desired. (Pictured on page 149, bottom left).
