Watermelon
Strawberry Juice
There's really no recipe for this because it doesn't
matter the ratio of watermelon to strawberries you
use. Your inventory will dictate this. Be sure to
use the sweetest watermelon and strawberries you can
get your hands on because blending them won't improve
their flavor. This recipe is the perfect excuse to
use up all those deliciously sweet but sadly bruised
strawberries not quite worthy of serving the Queen.
To prepare what will undoubtedly be the most refreshing
drink of your life, place hulled and halved strawberries
and chunks of watermelon in a blender and blend until
smooth. Season to taste with a pinch of salt (yes
salt), a drizzle of honey and blend once more. Garnish
with mint sprigs, climb into a hammock or onto a chaise
lounge in a shady spot, toss your sun hat to the side,
pick up that book you've been reading to read all
summer and sip away.
