I love summer mocktails. There is nothing more refreshing than blending up your favorite fruit with fresh herbs and citrus to sip on when it’s hotter than hot outside. That’s where this watermelon lime mocktail comes in.

All it takes is cubed watermelon, lime juice and fresh mint and voila! A seriously delicious summer beverage. If you want to sweeten it a bit, I recommend using agave, but honey would work, too. And if you’d like to make it a little creamy, add a little canned coconut milk.

Also, if you’re looking for other variations, try any combination of frozen berries, dark sweet cherries, peaches or mango. You could try using fresh basil or go for a unique flavor combo with cilantro or rosemary. Also, fresh lemon or orange juice would pair well with many of these fruit and herb options.

Basically what I’m saying is these mocktails are easy to make, totally customizable and yes…. refreshing! Enjoy!
