Ingredients

  • 8 cups diced fresh watermelon seedless or with seeds
  • 2 cups water * see recipe notes
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice (about half of a large lime)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a blender add 4 cups of the watermelon chunks with 1 cup of water. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth. Transfer drink to a pitcher (see note)
  2. Note: If the watermelon has seeds, pass the juice thru fine mesh strainer to remove the blended seeds.
  3. Repeat process with remaining watermelon.
  4. Add the ½ cup sugar and lime juice to the pitcher. Mix well and taste for sweetness. Add more sugar according to taste.
  5. Pour into a tall glass filled with ice and garnish with fresh watermelon (optional). This drink is best if consumed within 1 to 2 days max.

Notes

  • I keep the water at minimum since watermelon is mostly water already. Plus if you dilute it too much then you have to compensate the loss of flavor with sugar. By keeping the juice with mostly watermelon, you keep the calories down!
