Basil Watermelon Fizz (Mocktail)

Summer BBQ season officially kicks off this weekend! Festive cocktails, grilled meats and veggies, and good conversation around blazing fire pits are the ingredients for a great summer. But if you’re newly pregnant or nursing, festive cocktails may not be in the cards! If you’re looking for a fun drink that won’t cramp your bump life style, try our Basil Watermelon Fizz!

This summery mocktail combines fresh watermelon, fragrant basil, coconut water and a splash of sparkling water and tastes like sunshine in a glass! If you’d like to booze it up, vodka would pair nicely.

 

The Basil Watermelon Fizz is also the perfect drink to share with the kiddos. It’s low in sugar, hydrating, and super tasty.
