Summer Drink Recipes
There’s no better way to enjoy a beautiful summer day than sipping a refreshing drink out on the patio. Today I’m joining Krista from The Happy Housie and some blogging friends for the last week of the summer simplicity series. This week we’re sharing our favorite summer drink recipes. Whether you’re hosting a summer party, enjoying a BBQ, or just chilling out in the backyard, these drink recipes will be a summer hit!
Raspberry Watermelon Slush
This delicious raspberry watermelon slush will soon be a summer favorite. It’s low-calorie, filled with a ton of nutrients, and SO refreshing. Watermelon has a high water content and electrolyte balance which makes it perfect for rehydrating on a hot summer’s day. It’s also an excellent source of vitamin C and antioxidants for a tasty punch of summer goodness. It really is the perfect summer drink!

Tips for the Best Frozen Drinks
Here are a few tips for making the best rapsberry watermelon slushies. I’ve made a lot of them! lol!
- Once you’ve diced the watermelon, put the pieces in a freezer safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours prior to blending. If you’re short on time, you can skip this step, but it makes for a nice, thick drink.
- If you don’t have agave syrup, you can use another liquid sweetener such as honey, Stevia drops, or simple syrup; however, the amount needed may vary. When in doubt, start with less – you can always add more in if needed! {NOTE: Granulated sugar is not recommended as it may not dissolve completely.}
- If you like your drink a little thinner, you can add a splash of lemon-lime soda, club soda, or juice.
- You can place any leftovers in a Ziploc freezer bag or other freezer safe container and store in the freezer. When you’re ready to use it, just let it thaw slightly and place it in the blender to refresh.
- Looking for an adult drink? Add 1-2 shots of flavored vodka or schnapp’s.
