Watermelon Frosty

I can't get enough of watermelon these days! I love eating it fresh in a big bowl and tasting those sweet juices. Speaking of juice, I recently purchased a Jack LaLanne Power Juicer and it has been the best investment EVER. We don't ever get enough fruits and vegetables at our house. Thanks to our new juicer that has changed and we're juicing every fruit and veggie in sight.

Before summer flies right over our heads and fall appears, here is another tasty summer beverage that is perfect for these hot days. This Watermelon Frosty is super simple and super refreshing. And completely guilt free! Even better! I'll take two, please.

Watermelon Frosty (serves 4)
Mel's Kitchen Cafe

• 2 c. frozen watermelon cubes or chunks
• 1/2 frozen banana (Have a banana or two about to go bad? Slice them up, put them in baggies, and pop them in the freezer for frozen drinks and smoothies!)
  
• 1/2 c. water, plus a little extra if needed
• juice of 1/2 lemon or lime
• 1-2 Tbsp. maple syrup or honey, for sweetening

Put all the ingredients in your blender or food processor and mix together till combined. This is where that extra water may come in. Add a little bit of water if the mixture needs to be loosened up. But be careful not to add too much water or you'll lose that yummy flavor.

Serve immediately and in frosted glasses, if desired!
