Land of the Free Lemonade
Watermelon is the ultimate All-American summer snack. This year, make your 4th of July celebration even sweeter with a sweet-tart watermelon lemonade.
How to Make It
Step 1
Bring 6 cups water, sugar and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat, stirring occasionally. Remove saucepan from heat, add reserved lemons, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, puree chopped watermelon in a blender or food processor with 1 cup water.
Step 3
Pour syrup and watermelon puree through a strainer into a pitcher. Stir in lemon juice. (Lemonade can be made up to 1 day ahead.) Serve over ice.

It was alright, but not worth the effort. Made it for fourth of july but the kids preferred the instant pink lemonade we had on hand.

Made this for memorial day and it is perfect! It's delicious and takes a bit like pink lemonade. I had to use more than 8 lemons though to make 2 cups (about 10 large lemons). I'll make it again for my son's birthday party.
