Description
Hydrating Watermelon Water is healthy, with no added sugars, and is the perfect way to stay refreshed all Summer long. Minimal ingredients come together for a water that you'll actually be excited to drink. Plus, it takes under 10 minutes to make.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups of fresh watermelon, cut into cubes
- juice from 1/2 a lime
- 11 ounce coconut water
- 2 cups water
- sprig of fresh mint, rinsed and dried
- 1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt
- 2 cups ice
Instructions
- Add the fresh watermelon cubes into the blender and blend on high or pulse until smooth.
- Using a fine mash strainer, pour the watermelon juice in small increments into the strainer over a bowl to remove seeds and pulp. Use the bottom of a spoon to run over the top of the pulp to help push the juices through. Discard the pulp and seeds.
- Add the ice into a pitcher. Pour in strained watermelon juice, lime juice, water, coconut water and add in the mint sprig and pinch of salt. Stir or shake to combine.
- Pour the watermelon water over ice in a glass and enjoy!
Notes
- I highly recommend straining the watermelon juice to avoid seeds and pulp in the water.
- Serving it over ice makes it ready to drink right away.
- This juice isn't pasteurized, which means it doesn't last long in the fridge. I prefer enjoying it within 24 hours for the safest option.
