Contribute to your daily fruit servings and quench your thirst with this fun drink that’s sure to please. Inspired by Italian ice, this concoction is a slushy combination of lycopene-rich watermelon and antioxidant-abundant blueberries that can be enjoyed with a spoon or through a straw as it melts.
