A sweet & fruity, summer melon drink.
Brimming with the tropical flavors of coconut & pineapple along with the vibrant watermelon, this is a juicy co*cktail to enjoy on a hot summer evening. Yet another drink & name coined by Arjun which we really enjoyed. The kids got their share without the alcohol & enjoyed sipping the fresh mingle of summer.
Sweet Meloncholy

I cannot say no to co*cktails, but I feel kind of lazy to make them. It looks very refreshing in this hot summer weather in Texas. Thank you for sharing.

Wow, coconut milk? I’ve been admiring the pic for a while, but just now read the ingredients… A watermelon-pina-colada, eh? I’ve never combined watermelon and coconut milk and I have no idea why it never occured to me before!
