Here in Texas, this winter has had as many 80-degree days as 30-degree ones, often bouncing back and forth within the same week. I’ll make ice cream on a hot day, and then have leftovers taking up space in the freezer for a month because it gets cold again! So next time things swung hot, I reached for a warm-weather classic that would require no long-term storage: Lemonade! Sweetened with honey and optionally served with a hint of mint, this Watermelon Lemonade is the perfect summer refreshment. Whatever time of year that summer happens to come.
