Watermelon Lime Refresher

Are you experiencing a massive heat wave? Are you craving an ice cold refreshing drink too? This watermelon lime refresher is the perfect summer drink to cool you down and satisfy your thirst!

I happen to have one too many limes around the house because I forgot buying in bulk is more for large families and not one person households. My limes started to harden and rot especially in this heat wave, so I had to put them to good use!

I eyeballed all of the ingredients and simply tasted the drink as I went to make sure it was not too tart and not too sweet for my liking. I used about 4-5 limes with ~3/4 cup sugar and ~1.5 quarts of water. After mixing that together, I poured the mixture in a glass of ice topped off with a splash of watermelon juice. I have also tried the limeade with crushed berries on top or orange juice and it is just as tasty :)

This is a 10/10 summer drink that is such a good use of fruit lying around your house. Although it has a bit more sugar, I recommend having the drink in moderation. You can also adjust the sugar amount to your preferences.
