Fresh watermelon chunks are blended smooth with lime zest, lime juice, and cooled simple syrup, then strained for a pristine, refreshing drink. This vibrant pink cooler is the ultimate thirst-quencher for a hot backyard beach party.

Preparing this Watermelon and Burrata salad is an absolute breeze. Perfect for when you're hungry but don't want to spend all day over a hot stove. It's refreshing, a bit salty, and packed with flavor.

Nothing says summer's not quite over like a watermelon margarita - minus the tequila. This one comes together in about two minutes flat: watermelon juice, a splash of club soda for fizz, and This Girl Walks Into a Bar's margarita mix doing all the heavy lifting on flavor. A Tajín rim brings the salty-spicy kick, a squeeze of lime finishes it off, and you've got something that tastes like a cocktail without the tequila (but you can add it in if you'd like). I am completely obsessed with this mixer line - it's become a staple in my kitchen - and they're giving Valerie's Place members 30% off their entire order.
