Description
Watermelon lemonade: A cool, refreshing, healthy drink of watermelon juice and lemons or limes. Put a touch of salt on the glass rim for an extra burst of flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 of a large, seedless watermelon, diced (preferably cold)
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice or lime juice
- 3 tbsp of raw agave nectar (or to taste) - OPTIONAL See Note 1
- Coarse sea salt and fresh lime wedges for garnish
Instructions
- Combine watermelon, lemon juice and agave in a blender
- Blend until smooth and refrigerate until ready to serve
- Before serving, place sea salt on a small plate, wet the rim of the cups with a fresh lemon or lime wedge and gently dab it into the salt until all the rim is covered.
- Alternatively, pour some agave on a small plate, turn a glass upside down on the agave, so the rim gets covered in agave, then repeat on the salt plate.
- Pour the cold watermelon lemonade, over ice.
- Garnish with a lemon wedge, if desired
Notes
- If you like your drink more on the sour side like we do, reduce the amount of agave or skip it altogether.
