Strawberries and watermelon have long been the perfect summer pair. In this light, vitamin-packed homemade cooler, we think they shine particularly bright.

Ingredients

2 cups strawberries, hulled
1 cup watermelon chunks, seeds removed
1 cup crushed ice
1 tablespoon sugar, more to taste
1 bottle strawberry-flavored sparkling water, well chilled
Fresh mint for garnish

Method

Put strawberries, watermelon, ice and sugar into a blender and purée until smooth. Pour into tall glasses and top off with sparkling water. Garnish with mint and serve.
