Watermelon Slush

The first time I had a watermelon slush was at the Hilton in Puket, Thailand.  I was lying by the pool and the sun was blistering hot.  I needed a refreshing cool drink and I noticed they served a watermelon slush.  It hit the spot even though it was such a simple drink.  

Needless to say I had several more on that trip and vowed to make it when I got home.  Well, three years later and since we started this blog I finally decided to recreate that yummy drink in Thailand. I hope you find it as refreshing as I did on these hot summer days!
