Watermelon/Strawberry Slushies

As promised here is a wonderful summer time drink. Watermelon/Strawberry Slushies! They are super easy too!

Strawberry-Watermelon Slushie

3 cups cubed seedless watermelon
3/4 pint fresh strawberries, sliced
1/3 C sugar
1/3 C fresh lemon juice
2-4 C ice cubes
In a blender, combine the watermelon, strawberries, sugar and lemon juice; cover and process on high until smooth. Gradually add ice cubes until desired consistency is reached. Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately.
*Heres an added tip... my blender doesnt crush ice very well... so I put my ice cubes in a ziplock bag and smash them with a hammer before putting them in a blender

Yield: 5-7 cups
