This looks interesting

  • Approx 4-5 cups of watermelon (seeded and cubed)
  • 1-2 cups of water, as required
  • sugar/honey/agave nectar to taste
  • 2-3 tbsp of fresh lemon juice (I used the juice of one large lemon since I love the taste)
  • few mint leaves for garnish
  • crushed ice to serve

Re: watermelon

watermelon-pineapple juice is a great combination. also the watermelon neutralises the tangy and heaty pineapple. I could drink a jug of this juice
