Healthy Rosemary Infused Pink Lemonade

I saw a picture of a red drink on pinterest, that really inspired me.
A while ago, I made a cleansing smoothie with cucumbers, pineapples and coconut water, and it was just so good (was inspired by the juice with these three ingredients at Juice Crafters – their juices are just too amazing).

I thought, wouldn’t it be an amazing idea to make a smoothie-like thing with WATERMELON? It’s really watery and sweet, and what else can I add?
It was a fluke, to have called this a lemonade, because I didn’t even think about it until I tasted it.

It really is a perfect, sweet lemonade and best thing is, no added sugar. All the sweetness comes naturally in the watermelon, and it tastes so refreshing too. I decided to add a little rosemary for extra taste, you can also try herbs like sage.
