This really is a Summer Watermelon Situation. I was a little skeptic at first to try it with the coconut juice but I tried it with the coconut juice. I believe that the coconut juice set off the whole drink. Absolutely a refreshing dink on the hot dog days of summer. Nothing says summer like The Summer Watermelon Situation. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/summer-watermelon-situation-recipe.html#communityReviews
