I used sugar instead of honey and put them in the freezer right for forty-five minutes before serving and they were great. Made me wish that the evening had been much hotter, they were so refreshing.

Served this yesterday for neighborhood BBQ. I followed suggetions of others as far as using some 7-up. I also added a few pinches of suger rather than a full cup. I left some larger pieces of ise in tact since it was 102 degrees in Vegas Yesterday. Came out beautifully. Few adults were able to get a taste 'cause the kids just went nutzo over it! Thanks

pretty surprising! I am not a huge fan of watermelon because it is so messy, but this was the perfect way to drink it!

Instead of using ice cubes, I blended in frozen strawberries with the watermelon. Didn't add any honey or sweetener, but did add a small amount of 7Up. Delish!

Interesting recipe, although, it did taste a bit like plain crushed watermelons. If you add a bit of sugar, it helps. Also, we added minced mint leaves which was great but adding that reminded us too much of "chilled watermelon soup".

After reading other reviews, I made a change or two and LOVED the result. I added 1 cup Sugar Free Strawberry Lemonade that was sitting in the fridge, and plopped in 4-5 frozen strawberries. I didn't add but a few ice cubes because I really don't like thick beverages, so this is more like a pulpy punch. This is a good recipe for leftover watermelon that is sitting in the fridge!!

Wasn't too fond of the texture at first so I blended it again with 1/2 Cup of StrawberryBanana Crystal Light and it came out quite tasty!

Well, I would give this recipe a 3 as it is written. I followed the directions exactly and when I asked my guest what they thought they all said, “Well, it tastes like watermelon.” Not really what I was looking for, but I had to agree with them. I was willing to drink it, but I didn’t want seconds. Then I tried adding 7 Up, a suggestion that someone else made and I had to give it a big wonderful 5! The 7 Up made the difference! With that help, I couldn’t get enough! YUM!

Yummy! I skipped the honey, added just a sprinkle of sugar, and a splash of raspberry lime seltzer, and these are delicious!

Good idea for turning extra watermelon into a cool summer's drink. I added ginger ale and 1 tsp of sugar to give it a little kick.

I like this a lot! Although I had to sweeten it a lot more for my tastes. I used about tablespoon of honey and two to three tablespoons sugar. Well done tho.
