Watermelon Cooler
Watermelon Lemonade Melonade Request From: "Rochelle Mooney" > I am looking for recipes which use watermelon. I have just seen it in fruit salads. There must be other ways to use it. Thanks These are some recipes that use watermelon in a drink and the watermelon rind. They are the only recipes that I have for watermelon, as I like to eat plain cold watermelon. Terry S. Watermelon Cooler Note: This is a great drink to give the kids (and adults) while cooking and playing outside. 1/2 medium watermelon About 2 cups of ice Fresh Mint Leaves Juice the watermelon (use a bit of the rind for more nutrition) in a professional juicer. Pour into a blender and add ice. Mix to make a "slushy" type drink. Garnish with mint leaves. Serve immediately. Yields: 2 to 3 servings. Watermelon Lemonade 8 cups seeded watermelon cut into 1-inch chunks 1 cup hulled and quartered fresh strawberries 1 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 3 lemons) 2 cups water (approximately) Thin watermelon wedges with the rind (optional) In a food processor fitted with a steel blade pulse the watermelon, strawberries, and sugar until blended and smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a 2-quart container, pushing down on the solids to get all the juice. Add the lemon juice and enough of the water to make 1 1/2 quarts. Chill until very cold. Serve over ice with a wedge of watermelon, if desired. Yields: 1 1/2 quarts Melonade 2 cups watermelon, cubed 1 pint fresh or 2 cups frozen whole strawberries 1/2 cup sugar 1/3 cup lemon juice 2 cups ice cubes Mint leaves, melon, berries for a garnish (optional) Place all ingredients in blender, and Blend until ice is crushed. These require some work and time but I just love them. -- Rec.food.recipes is moderated by Patricia D Hill at . Only recipes and recipe requests are accepted for posting.
