Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
- 1/4 cup sugar (or to taste)
- 2 cups cold water
- Ice cubes
- Optional: pinch of salt, mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Blend the Melon: Add watermelon cubes to a blender and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve if you want it pulp-free.
- Juice the Lemons: Squeeze fresh lemon juice and remove seeds. Combine with watermelon juice in a large pitcher.
- Sweeten the Deal: Stir in sugar and water until fully dissolved. Taste and adjust as needed.
- Serve It Cold: Fill glasses with ice, pour the lemonade, and garnish with mint or lemon slices.
- Optional Twist: Add a pinch of salt or a splash of sparkling water for a new layer of flavor.
Notes
Chill all your ingredients before mixing to avoid watering it down with too much ice. Serve it fresh—flavor fades if left sitting too long.
