Fresh watermelon and lime juice mixed together with a splash of lemon and lime soda for the ultimate summer drink.
Put chunks of watermelon in blender with 2 ounces of simple syrup {equal parts of water & sugar-see notes} and blend into a puree. Pour puree through a fine strainer and use the back of a spoon to push juice through. Combine watermelon juice with lime juice and simple syrup. Serve over ice with a splash of lemon and lime soda {& shot of vodka, if desired}, garnish with watermelon or lime wedge, or both. Refrigerate leftovers, being sure to stir limeade if it has been sitting for a while because the watermelon juice will sink to the bottom of the pitcher.
