Serves 2
Note: You can freeze chopped watermelon chunks in an airtight baggie for future use!
Simple Syrup:
Boil equal parts sugar and water until the sugar dissolves. Let cool and store in a jar in your fridge.
Some of this lives in my fridge in all the warmer months! P.S. I use about 1/4 cup sugar (I also use raw cane, not plain old white) to 1 cup of water, I don't need it anywhere that sweet, so adjust to your taste.
