This was the best summertime drink this season I had soo much leftover watermelon from the 4th of July, that I didn't want not one piece to go to waste!! Froze up a cup to a cup & a 1/4th in individual baggies and waited ;-) Had to make my own drink mix with unsweetened drink mix and sugar and followed the recipe like stated.
I ended up adding a TBSP more because I believe the pre-made stuff is more concentrated then mine...but however, it took all of a couple of minutes to pull things to one stop and whip in a matter of seconds...TY TY TY this was the best, now I can make it with a moments notice on the fly! YUM!

INSTRUCTIONS
- Add sugar and 1 cup water to a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and add remaining 2 cups water.
