Summertime has finally hit southern California last week and there is a lot of celebrations still going on and parents are excited to know their children will be going back to school in a few weeks. While we continue this last hurrah before the start of fall, consider a watermelon Frappé that's cool, refreshing, not too many calories and can be enjoyed by both adults and kids alike. Watermelons are in abundance and are a sure quencher during the dog days of summer.
Cheers,

Watermelon Frappé
1 small watermelon
5 tablespoons of powdered sugar
2 cups of crushed ice
Place a quarter cup of crushed ice into a blender, add a quarter of the melon flesh and sugar and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a pitcher and put to one side. Repeat the process three times to make up the right amount. Pour into ten tumblers and enjoy!
