Serves 4

Beat the heat with a tall glass of strawberries, watermelon and rum. Vodka and bourbon work well with this recipe, and it’s also great virgin.

Ingredients:

2 cups watermelon, roughly chopped
1/2 cup strawberries, diced
1 cup coconut water
1 tablespoon agave nectar
Juice from 1 lime
1 cup ice
2 to 4 shots of white rum

Directions:

In a blender combine watermelon, strawberries, coconut water, agave nectar and lime juice and pulse until smooth.
Add one cup of ice to the blender and pulse until the ice is crushed.
Divide between four glasses. You can optionally add one shot of rum or vodka to each glass.
Serve immediately with a straw and garnish with strawberry slices or citrus wedges.
