Watermelon Limeade

This Watermelon Limeade is one of my favorite refreshing ways to cool down on a hot day. It’s super quick and easy, naturally sweet, and gives a fun tangy kick from the lime.

Ingredients

  • 8 cups watermelon - cubed
  • 2 cups water
  • cup fresh lime juice
  • Lime slices - for garnish
  • Fresh mint - for garnish
  • Ice
  • *No sugar?

Instructions

  • Place watermelon cubes in a blender and process until completely blended. Strain half of the juice through a fine mesh sieve over a large bowl or container and discard the solids left over (you can strain the second half of juice; however, I prefer to leave some of the solids since that is the healthiest part for you). Pour watermelon juice into a large container and pour in fresh lime juice, water and ice cubes. Stir together and taste. Add more fresh lime juice if needed.

Notes

*With a sweet enough watermelon, I found it sweet enough without additional sugar; but if you prefer a sweeter juice you can, of course, add sugar. Start with 1/4 cup, stir until sugar dissolves completely, and taste. Add more if needed.
