It’s hot and I’m whiny and sweaty and probably a little grumpy.
Seriously, you guys.
All year long I complain about the cold and then BAM. It’s 90 degrees out and I start daydreaming about Fall. It’s a really vicious cycle. Also, I’m a whiner.
I’ve just learned to embrace it. So has my family. I like to pretend that it’s part of my charm.
Anyway, I’m hot and I need lots of refreshing drinks, preferably made with fresh fruit and lots of ice.
These simple Strawberry Watermelon Spritzers are so quick to prepare and are totally refreshing on a hot summer day!
Bonus points: My kids hate lemon lime soda, which means that I get these all to myself.

We’re supposed to hit 90 today and I’m pretty bummed about it. I may be an east coaster but weather wise I’m a California girl at heart. I hate being sweaty! This drink looks really refreshing, it might just be my solution for the heat wave.
