Blended Watermelon Mojitos + Weekday Weekend Giveaway

July 28, 2018 by Natalie 3 Comments

Blended Watermelon Mojitos + Weekday Weekend Giveaway

Happy weekend everyone! I’m sharing a recipe for Blended Watermelon Mojitos from A Beautiful Mess’s cookbook Weekday Weekend. If you haven’t picked up a copy of this book yet, I urge you to! As someone who has struggled with an on again off again vegetarian diet, this book has really helped me stay on track with healthy eating habits.

Blended Watermelon Mojitos + Weekday Weekend Giveaway

The whole idea behind this book and the Weekday Weekend concept is simple. For 5 days a week, you eat according to 5 rules.

  • eat a variety of foods
  • no refined or artificial sugars or sweeteners
  • no refined white flour or white rice
  • no dairy
  • no alcohol

Then on the weekend, there are no rules! At first, it was a little hard, especially the no alcohol part. But these rules, or diet if you want to call it that, is totally sustainable. You eat healthy all week and then there’s still time to indulge in all the sweets and cocktails your heart desires. In moderation of course! 😉

Blended Watermelon Mojitos + Weekday Weekend Giveaway

This weekend I’m indulging in these Blended Watermelon Mojitos plus I will be giving away copies of Weekday Weekend to 3 lucky readers over on Instagram. So head here and check out the rules for entering. I will be announcing winners on my IG stories on Monday. I’m so happy to be able to share this book with you because it has really helped me with my own healthy eating struggles and I hope it will help you too!

Blended Watermelon Mojitos + Weekday Weekend Giveaway

Blended Watermelon Mojitos, serves two

2 cups cubed seedless watermelon

4 oz. light rum (I used Plantation)

1/4 cup simple syrup (1:1)

juice and zest of 1 lime

12 fresh mint leaves plus more for garnish

2 cups ice cubes

First, make your simple syrup. Combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan. Place on medium heat and stir to help dissolve the sugar. Do not boil. Let cool and store in a bottle in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

To make your blended watermelon mojitos combine all the ingredients in a blender and process on high until smooth. Divide between 2 glasses or serve in a half of a small hollowed out watermelon. Garnish with mint sprigs, lime, and anything else fun that your heart desires.

I love eating healthy all week because I know that I’m doing something good for myself and my body. Eating healthy does not mean you have to sacrifice flavor. Weekday Weekend will show you how to become more aware of your eating habits and learn more easy options for improving them. There are so many delicious recipe ideas for breakfast, meals, snacks & sweets, and of course drinks. Sweets and cocktails are my favorite so I’m usually counting down the days until Saturday. These Blended Watermelon Mojitos are so easy to make and the perfect weekend treat.

  • Very excited to announce that I’m a contender for the @patron Margarita of the Year campaign. If 2019 is not going to be MY year will you make it my margaritas? 😉
.
The Golden Hour Margarita is based off the simplicity of the Tommy’s Margarita, with an added twist of turmeric to give it the pop of color of my favorite time of day — the golden hour in NYC — when something as simple as the sun reflecting off the buildings can offer a moment to stop in the bustling city and reflect on its grandeur.
.
Voting starts today on #internationalmargaritaday and you can vote once a day until 4/24. Thanks everyone! I hope I can make NYC proud. Link in bio! #GoldenHourMargarita #MargaritaOfTheYear #ALinmyglass

  • This is the first time in 3 years that I will not be spending my birthday in Palm Springs @modernism_week. To say the least, I’m a little bummed, and I will be having major FOMO looking at all your photos. Hold on — let me go make popcorn so I can just watch all your stories and pretend I’m there. Have fun everyone! Throw back to my favorite photo of myself ever. Spirit animal: flamingo. #modernismweek @saguarohotels #getsomecolor #psilovehue

  • Happy Galentine’s to all my ladies out there! I don’t know where I would be without the amazing gals that are by my side everyday. I can’t thank you all enough for putting up with my shit, getting endless amounts of drinks/eating copious amounts of pizza with me, letting me call you on the telephone, not thinking I’m crazy for sending you 1000x texts (you probably think I’m crazy), and for allowing me to cry sometimes, laugh a lot, and for having impromptu dance parties. Tag a lady below who is always by your side. I wish every night was ladies night. 💖 #GalentinesDay

  • I know it’s very silly but Valentine’s Day has always been one of my favorite holidays. In the past, I’ve been known to go to the top of the Empire State Building on 2/14. Who can guess why? Flashback to a Valentine’s Day shoot in my old studio with @karmaflowers. 💖
