Living in Mexico taught me alot about fresh fruits and veggies and ways to make drinks from them. In the US, at least here in the south, I had never seen anyone be able to take a cucumber and make a great tasting drink from it!... Or from rice...(horchata for those of you that know what that is...)Anyway, my and my wife's favorite one is Watermelon....

Fill blender full of water melon
Add water just to the level at whaich the melon reaches.
Add sugar to taste.
Blend
filter if desired,(like if you left the seeds in, etc...)
.
Horchata (rice water)
Leave rice in water over night, or boil to soften.
Place in blender with your choice of milk or water or both.
Add cinnamon and sugar to taste.
Filter solids out.

The rice water is also one part of a three part mix to making a great piņa colada.
After making the rice water, boil a fresh pinapple to extract the juice from it, and have some cocunut milk on hand, as well.
