Watermelon Wave Slushie
Without a doubt, watermelon is the fruit of the summer. And we’ve taken that sweet, juicy taste and turned it into a slushie for kids and adults alike using a fruity infusion of real watermelon.
Before we launched our Watermelon Wave tea, it had been a few years since we’d introduced a new watermelon blend, so we wanted to make sure we got it juuuust right—no artificial flavouring, just real fruit. And we think we hit the nail on the head with this bold, bright & kid-friendly tea that steeps a rich red.
Blend it up with some ice, a splash of lime and sweetener to taste, and you’ve got the recipe of an unbeatable summer treat!
