W for Watermelon Shake



Watermelon Shake

I love watermelon shake! Among the fruit shakes and smoothies, this is my all-time favorite! So when the crew from Italianni's ask me what drink I wanted and heard the magic words, "watermelon shake," I ordered it right away!

The watermelon shake served in Italianni's was great. It wasn't that sweet, and although it's more watery than icy, I loved sipping through my big, tall, glass! I have no idea how much this one cost because it was a "food on the house" thing, but I don't think I would dare ordering this one again because I know it would be very expensive (hahahaha).

Although this is my favorite shake, I think I only had a taste of this drink two times this summer. The first one was the melon-watermelon shake I ordered in Fruitas and then this. How weird, eh? I recently learned that watermelon has lots of sugar, so I was trying not to eat too much of it. I actually didn't buy even a slice of watermelon this summer! I guess that even if there are certain foods that we consider our favorites, we all should know how to draw the line.

Nice photo and a good W choice. Sounds like a yummy drink. I've never had one, but I do enjoy watermelon, so maybe I'll need to give one a whirl if I come across one.
