Ingredients
1 piece Watermelon
1 cup Lemon Juice
1 inch Ginger
Sweetener: Simple syrup or honey (optional, to taste)
Garnish: Fresh mint leaves and lemon slices (optional)
Instructions
1
Trim the bottom of the watermelon to stabilize it, then cut off the rind. Slice the watermelon in half, then into smaller slices, and finally into large chunks. Taste a piece to gauge sweetness for lemon adjustment.
2
Cut lemons in half and juice them into a measuring cup. Peel the ginger using a spoon to get into the nooks.
3
Place the watermelon chunks into a blender (like a Vitamix). Use a tamper to push the fruit down and blend until smooth.
4
Pour the blended watermelon through a sieve into a bowl or pitcher to remove the pulp. Keep blending until all fruit is processed (about 10-12 cups total).
5
Pour the lemon juice and peeled ginger into the blender. Blend until smooth, then strain this mixture into the watermelon juice. Add a little water to the blender to get any remaining juice out.
6
Mix everything together well. Add mint leaves and lemon slices to your pitcher for garnish.
7
Pour into glasses and enjoy your natural, sugar-free drink!
