Fresh Watermelon Lemonade: An Incredible 5-Ingredient Summer Sipper


  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 cups cubed seedless watermelon
– 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)
– ½ cup granulated sugar (adjust based on preference)
– 2 cups cold water
– Ice cubes


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your incredibly refreshing Fresh Watermelon Lemonade:

1. Prepare the Watermelon: Start by cutting the watermelon into small cubes. Ensure you use ripe, sweet watermelon for the best flavor.
2. Juicing the Lemons: Squeeze the lemons to obtain one cup of fresh lemon juice. A citrus juicer can make this task easier.
3. Blend Watermelon: In a blender, combine the cubed watermelon with cold water. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.
4. Strain the Mixture (optional): If you prefer a smoother lemonade, strain the blended watermelon juice through a fine mesh strainer into a large pitcher to remove the pulp.
5. Mix the Ingredients: Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice and sugar to the pitcher. Stir well until the sugar dissolves completely.
6. Taste and Adjust: Taste your Fresh Watermelon Lemonade. If it’s too sweet, add a bit more lemon juice. If it’s too tart, add a little more sugar.
7. Refrigerate: Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
8. Serve: When ready to serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the Fresh Watermelon Lemonade over the ice. Garnish with lemon slices or mint leaves, if desired.

These steps will ensure you create a delicious pitcher of Fresh Watermelon Lemonade every time.
