It's good without any sweetener, but sometimes I added a simple syrup or just a few spoonfuls of sugar.

Welcome Semantics!

Oh wow I love watermelon! One of my coworkers attempted to make something like this over the summer when we were melting in a 120 degree kitchen with high humidity. It seemed like no matter what we would drink it was never enough. All I wanted was crushed ice and a watermelon drink such as this.

Excellent. Thank you!

There are so many great soft drink options out there and yet I rarely hear anyone discussing them. So glad that we are getting this conversation started.
