This pretty pink cocktail would be perfect for a bridal shower luncheon. Any leftover pureed juice is refreshing on its own.

This was truly a tasty drink. Thankfully my local grocer carries fresh watermelon juice. How convenient! Everyone at the party enjoyed it. This will stay on my recipe list. A must try for anyone. Read More
