Watermelon Lemonade | The #1 Perfect Cool Down Drink

September 1, 2017

Watermelon Lemonade

Best tip is to give the watermelon a taste first. If you find the watermelon to be very sweet, reduce the amount of sugar.

Watermelon Lemonade is a perfect beverage to pair with very spicy food like Indian and Mexican food. When you are eating an authentic curry or a spicy mole, serve this version of Watermelon Lemonade and enjoy!

Ingredients

4 cups* cubed ripe seedless watermelon (about 1/2 8-pound watermelon)
¾ cup fresh squeezed lemon juice (3 to 4 large lemons)
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 cups ice
Ice and fresh mint, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Scoop watermelon into a blender or food processor. This one works great!
Process until liquid.
Strain watermelon through a mesh strainer, reserving 4 cups of watermelon juice and discarding the watermelon flesh.
Pour the watermelon juice into a pitcher. Set aside.
Juice the lemons to equal 1 cup (use more if you prefer it really tart. I used 4 large lemons and got 1 cup of lemon juice)
Strain the lemon juice and add it to the pitcher.
Add in water.
Stir in sugar to sweeten to desired taste.
Serve immediately over ice and garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices.
