When the sun is high and the days feel endless, there's nothing better than an ice-cold drink in your hand - especially one that's fresh, fruity, and bursting with summer flavor.
Your new favorite warm-weather refresher. It's light, naturally sweet, hydrating, and oh-so-cool (literally and figuratively). Whether you’re lounging poolside, hosting brunch, or just looking for a healthier way to stay hydrated, this juice is a game-changer.
Ingredients:
- 4 cups fresh watermelon, cubed and seeds removed
- Ice cubes
- Juice of 1 lime
- A handful of fresh mint leaves (about 10-12)
- Optional: Sparkling water for a fizzy finish
- 1-2 tsp honey
Instructions:
1. Combine the watermelon, mint, lime juice, and honey in a blender. Blend on high until smooth and frothy.
2. If you prefer a smoother juice, pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove the pulp. But if you like it with a little texture, keep it as is!
3. Pour the juice over ice in a glass or a mason jar. For a fun twist, top with sparkling water for a fizzy, refreshing feel.
4. Add a sprig of fresh mint or a slice of lime to garnish.
