Ingredients
- 6 cups watermelon diced, fresh
- 2 cups water cold
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar or more to taste
- 3 tbsp lime juice
- 1 (12 oz) can club soda
- mint for garnish, fresh, sprigs
Instructions
- Put watermelon, cold water, granulated sugar, and lime juice into the blender and blend until smooth. Taste for sweetness/lime flavor, and add more to taste.
- Pour the puréed watermelon mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher filled halfway with ice, then discard the pulp in the sieve.
- Pour the club soda into the pitcher and stir. Serve immediately and garnish with mint sprigs.

Notes
- If you're making this ahead of time: Do not add the carbonated water. Use a lidded pitcher to keep the watermelon juice fresh for up to 2 days before serving. Add the seltzer water to serve.
- Change the sweetener - I don't suggest brown sugar because of the molasses flavor, but try stevia, monk fruit, or another that you love to give this drink your desired sweetness.
- Make it grown up - a watermelon vodka cocktail is a great spin on this recipe. You'll be sipping all summer long!
- Try flavored sparkling water - bust out the LaCroix of your choice to give your soda another boost of flavor.
- Make a watermelon soda float with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a rainbow sorbet!
- Add a flavored syrup - I make flavored simple syrups all the time for things and you can find them in posts like my strawberry lemonade, peach sweet tea, and so many cocktails.
