I was able to spend some time with my family in Michigan a little while ago and my sister said we had to try this new watermelon drink she likes to make. Well there’s no better day to give it a try than National Water Melon Day!

Here’s what you need:

• 6 c. watermelon cubes, seeds removed*
• 1/4 c. granulated sugar
• 1 T. freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
• 1 c. coconut rum

Freeze the watermelon for a few hours before you want to make it in a ziplock bag. Blend those bad boys up in a blender, put in the rum, sugar, lime or lemon juice, blend more, DRINK!

OH. And it’s National Wine Day too. So you can do either/or or….both. 🙂
