We've been drinking watermelon.

An extreme summer heat wave is leaving us desperate to cool off in any way possible. When cold showers, pools and a Slip ‘n’ Slide don’t do the trick, turn to watermelon for help. Its high water content will keep you hydrated when you feel like you’re about to melt.

Just grab a blender and whiz up some refreshment. Check out the video above to see how we did it.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 lemons
  • 1 cup fresh mint
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 watermelon, cubed
  • 1 cup vodka (optional)

Juice your lemons into the blender (it should grind up any seeds), then add mint and sugar. Add watermelon in batches and blend until smooth; add vodka now, if you’re using it. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve if you’d like a smoother drink. Enjoy!
