Watermelon Juice
A wonderfully refreshing and naturally sweet beverage, Watermelon Juice is made from fresh, ripe watermelon, offering a pure, hydrating, and subtly sweet taste, perfect for cooling down on a hot day.
Prepare watermelon
Ensure you have 2 cups (300g) of cubed seedless watermelon. Remove any visible seeds if not using a seedless variety.
💡 Tips:
- •Choose a ripe watermelon for the best flavor; it should feel heavy for its size and have a dull spot (field spot).
Blend watermelon
Place the cubed watermelon in a blender. Blend on high speed until completely smooth. No additional water is usually needed due to watermelon's high water content.
💡 Tips:
- •Blend thoroughly to break down all solids. If your blender struggles, add 1-2 tablespoons of cold water to help it along.
Strain (optional) and serve
For a smoother, pulp-free juice, pour the blended watermelon through a fine-mesh sieve into a glass, pressing gently on the solids. Discard the pulp. Stir in 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice if desired. Pour into a glass with 1 serving of ice (optional). Garnish with 1-2 fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately.
💡 Tips:
- •Straining is optional; some prefer the slight pulp. Fresh lime juice brightens the flavor. Serve well-chilled.
- 💡For an extra refreshing kick, blend in a few fresh mint leaves or a small piece of peeled ginger.
- 💡You can add a tiny pinch of salt to enhance the sweetness of the watermelon.
- 💡Combine watermelon juice with sparkling water for a light and fizzy spritzer.
- 💡Freeze leftover juice in ice cube trays to use later in drinks or smoothies.
