Watermelon Strawberry Lemonade

My daughter, husband and I love having cold, sweet treats in the summertime. Who doesn't, right?! It's really hard to know how much sugar you're getting in those self serve frozen yogurt places and even in the organic ice pops that you get in the grocery store. Too much sugar can lead to dehydration and rob you of nutrients you really want your body to have in the heat of the summer. So, I showed Madeline, my daughter, how to make my Watermelon Strawberry Lemonade. It's a cross between a fruit smoothie and a lemonade, and has just the right amount of sweet and healthy to satisfy sweet cravings and keep us all cool and hydrated. Plus, it's super simple, take a look:
