Watermelon Juice

I was on liquid diet for the past one week. I bought a big chunck of watermelon the week before last, and my husband didn't even bother to give that to my girls when I was lying down last week (which I expected pretty much from him:D). Luckily, it didn't spoil and I made this juice day before yesterday, in large quantity, so that I could drink it very often. I tried giving juice to my girls but they are not a big fan of juices. So now a days i am filling up popsicle cups with these fruit juice which i make at home and giving it as popsicle sticks which they love to eat. Infact, i made complan yesterday and filled it in the popsicle cups and gave my girls as complan popsicle which they really liked. They will not drink anything except milk(which i am forcing them now a days). Well coming back to this recipe.

Ingredients:-
  1. Watermelon - 1 cup(Remove the skin and chop it)
  2. Honey - 2 tbsp (acc to taste)
  3. Ice cubes - 1 cup
  4. Water - 1 cup

Just put everything in the blender and blend it. Filter it if you want to and Enjoy!
