I just received an email from a foodie friend in Alaska. She sent two recipes that sound so good, I'm posting them without even trying them. Here's the challenge for you. Test out the recipes and leave a comment for the rest of us. If you made changes, let us know!
APPLE & WATERMELON SMOOTHIE. Serves 2.
1/2 pint concentrated apple juice
1 watermelon quarter, diced
1/2 cup of ice, optional (Note: Crush ice before blending as large chunks may harm blades.)
Blend all ingredients together until smooth. Very refreshing on a hot summer day!
WATERMELON MIMOSA. Makes 2 to 3 cocktails.
1 cup watermelon juice (pureed, strained)
1/2 cup light champagne (preferably not Brut, but rather Asti or similar)
Divide watermelon juice among 2 to 3 champagne flutes. Fill with champagne and Enjoy!

Thanks Debra! Just in time for watermelon harvest!
I've never had a watermelon mimosa, but I've made watermelon vodka mohitos before and they are excellent! I imagine this would be fantastic, too. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have one of your watermelon vodka mohitos. Sounds refreshing!
