Fresh watermelons are the perfect addition to summer. They are even better when they are frozen and blended so you can sip them through a straw! That is why this Watermelon Key Lime Slushie is a drink you must try!

Watermelon and lime really compliment each other. You have the sweetness from the watermelon and the sour from the lime and it just makes for an intoxicating drink. No this doesn’t have alcohol but you can certainly add your favorite flavored rum or vodka to it and I am sure it would be just as delicious.

This drink would be great to serve up at a barbecue, wedding, birthday party, and even baby shower. I love the bright color that comes from the watermelon making it such a colorful and pretty looking drink! Hope you will give it a try and let me know what you think!
