Making fresh watermelon juice is simple and delicious. Here’s a step-by-step guide to prepare refreshing watermelon juice:

Ingredients

• 4 cups diced seedless watermelon (about half a medium watermelon)
• 1-2 tablespoons fresh lime or lemon juice (optional, to taste)
• 1-2 tablespoons sugar or honey (optional, to taste)
• Ice cubes (optional)
• Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Watermelon:
   • Cut the watermelon into small cubes, removing the rind and any seeds.
2. Blend the Watermelon:
   • Place the watermelon cubes into a blender.
   • Blend until smooth.
3. Strain the Juice (Optional):
   • If you prefer a smoother juice, pour the blended watermelon through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a large bowl or pitcher. Use a spoon to press down on the pulp to extract as much juice as possible.
4. Add Flavor (Optional):
   • Stir in the lime or lemon juice and sweetener (sugar or honey) to taste. The citrus juice adds a tangy flavor and enhances the freshness of the juice.
5. Serve:
   • Pour the watermelon juice into glasses over ice cubes if desired.
   • Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an added touch of freshness.
6. Enjoy:
   • Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing watermelon juice!

Tips

• For an extra cold and slushy texture, freeze the watermelon cubes before blending.
• Mix watermelon juice with other fruit juices like orange, pineapple, or strawberry for a flavorful twist.
• Adding a pinch of salt can enhance the sweetness and flavor of the watermelon juice.

Watermelon juice is not only delicious but also hydrating and perfect for hot summer days. Enjoy!
