Summertime Watermelon Soda

What's summer without a cooling drink when it's hot outside? This sparkling soda is a kid pleaser. For grownups a jigger of vodka makes it fun, too.

Summertime Watermelon Soda

1 cup sugar
2 cup watermelon, diced & seeded
¼ cup water
1 cup lemon juice
1 qt. carbonated water

Bring sugar and water to a boil. Press watermelon for juice through a fine mesh strainer and discard pulp. Combine sugar syrup, juice and lemon juice; chill. Add carbonated water to mix just before serving.
