It's almost summertime and that means time for watermelon. We ended up with a watermelon that's bigger than my head and wanted to make something different but still refreshing.

So what better way to cool off than to blend a bit of watermelon with a few leftover strawberries and some ice in the blender?

In a matter of seconds, I had an icy, naturally sweet pink drink...yum!
What other things do you make with watermelon?
