Watermelon limeade

This refreshing beverage provides two servings of fruit. It will also help you meet the recommended daily intake of 6 to 8 glasses of water a day.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds seedless watermelon, rind removed and sliced
6 fresh limes, squeezed (about 3/4 cup juice)
1/2 cup honey
1 1/2 cups cold water

Directions

1. Place watermelon slices into a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
