It was good. I only used half the sugar. I was more like watermelon and strawberry juice next time I will add some lemonade concentrate to it to make it more lemonade-ish.

My family LOVED this!!! We used our juicer and combined 2 "baby" watermelons and 1 pint of strawberries, then we poured some into the blender and added 4 capfuls of lemon juice along with 3 splenda packets. It was amazingly delicious, all five kids begged for more! Thanks for the great idea, we'll definitely be making this again.

I used less sugar and it was plenty,I also froze some cubed watermelon for ice cubes and strained the drink. Very yummu, but kinda expensive to make. Will make again for special occasions.

Great! My aunt loved it! I used frozen strawberries and did not cut the amount of sugar.

An excellent way to use up leftover watermelon! I did as others suggested and used only half of the amount of sugar called for. I also blended the watermelon first and then strained it, then blended the strawberries and water and strained those and then dumped everything back in the blender with ice cubes (to make it good and cold). Tasty! Would be very good mixed with rum for a cocktail. Great recipe!!

This was so refreshing and a great way to use up fruit that is a little past it's prime but still good. It was also good with a splash of sparkling water. We will be making this again since both the kids and I liked it.

This was pretty good. I had to improvise with what I had. I used powdered lemonade and juice from 1 lime. I had a watermelon that wasn't too sweet and didn't want to waste it, so I feel good about using it. Will make this again.

I made this and another recipe from this site yesterday for a cook-out that my family and I are having today. I had to rate both of these and they both are 5 stars!!! I did strain this as others suggested, other than that I made as directed. WONDERFUL!!!! I am making extra batches so we won't run out, which I am sure will happen any way.

pinkdiamond1001 said it perfectly! I should have listened to her because I did not strain it and I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had. And mine came out very sweet also, so next time I will reduce the sugar. Nice, refreshing drink, though! Thank you!

Really good! My husband absolutely loved it. I also like it, but I wouldn't call it a typical lemonade. It is too sweet for that. I made it exactly as it was. 1/2 cup fresh lemon is 3 good size lemons. Since I don't like pulp of any kind, I strained the drink. I am so glad I did, because it is tasty and refreshing. If I was to make this a true lemonade, I would cut back on the sugar.

this didn't go over so well, even after I strained out all the pulp, made the recipe with less sugar and a non-seedless watermelon. Just not that spectacular really.

I needed a few recipes today to keep my mind off my troubles. This is one of them. Took a bit of work (and I strained the heck out of this) but when all was said and done, the end product is incredible. (I'm so happy I live in an area where the Farmers Markets are so wonderful and have such fresh ingredients.) I suggest you do what I did and buy a seedless watermelon. I can't wait to share it with my family for dinner! A+++++++!

I made this for the adults at my kids second birthday. Everyone loved it! Some people added vodka and turned this into a really nice summer time drink. At first I thought I made to much but it did not last long and if I had had enough to make more I would have.

This recipe was just ok. I think it would be better if I had strained it before serving. The flavor was good, but the texture of it was weird.

Excellent. Blending and then straining watermelon is much easier than seeding it by hand. I used frozen strawberries. This is delicious.

I made this 'lemonade' for a picnic playdate we're having tomorrow and while this juice is pretty good, there's nothing much 'lemonade' about it. I reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup (which was plenty) and increased the lemon juice to nearly 1 cup. This is a pretty expensive drink to make, so while it was pretty tasty, it's not likely I will make it again.
