Watermelon Grapefruit Fizz ~ A Minute Maid Summer Recipe #Giveaway {CAN}

Summer is a time when we host a lot of BBQ’s and get-togethers between friends.  During these summer months, I am somehow challenged to try new and different recipes.  (Yep, that’s right!  We use our friends as guinea pigs)

This time around I decided to try the Watermelon Grapefruit Fizz drink from Minute Maid.

Watermelon Grapefruit Fizz

 

• 8 cups of cubed watermelon
• 1 can Minute Maid® 100% Grapefruit Juice frozen concentrate, mixed with 1 ½ cans water
• 8 cups of Sprite*
• Basil leaves for garnish

In batches, puree watermelon cubes in blender. In large bowl, stir together prepared Minute Maid® 100% Grapefruit Juice with watermelon puree.

To serve: Fill glass with ice. Fill halfway with juice, top up with Sprite®. Stir in torn basil leaves.
