How To Make This Watermelon Drink “Adult”

Summer months mean lots of gathering, barbeques, and outside fun. It also means that sometimes we want more than just water to sip on!

Since I spent two super long summers pregnant, I came up with a variety of healthy mocktails to sip on when I needed to feel a bit more included. However, this summer drink made a frequent appearance too.

And the best part about this slushy recipe is that it works for both moms and kids. Thanks to the addition of Perrier, this summer drink fizzes when it’s made- which my kids adore!

And for us mamas, this watermelon slushy recipe easily turns into an indulgent, frozen alcoholic drink. If you want to make a Watermelon Slush Cocktail, simply use the additions below:

• 2 shots of your favorite vodka (anyone else adore Titos?
• Add 5 more strawberries or 3 more ice cubes

Garnish with a lime and indulge!
