CHILLED WATERMELON SOUP
This simple, refreshing gazpacho-like chilled soup depends on the sweetness of the watermelon, tempered by the addition of olive oil, vinegar, lime juice and salt, to create the perfect balance of flavors. A little spiciness in the form of cayenne or crushed red pepper is welcome, too, as is an extra squeeze of lime juice at the table.

WATERMELON-LIME-MINT COOLER
Taking a sip of this refreshing drink feels like a dip in the pool on a steamy day. It's inspired by the fruity Mexican drink agua fresca and is made with chopped watermelon, mint syrup, fresh lime juice, and a handful of ice.
