Ingredients
300 g 2 cup Watermelon
100 g 3/4 cup Cucumber
10 leaves 10 leaves Fresh mint leaves
15 ml 1 tbsp Lime juice
10 ml 2/3 tbsp Honey
Ice cubes
Equipment
Blender- fine mesh strainer
- knife
- cutting board
- Tall glass
Directions
- Start by dicing the watermelon and peeling and slicing the cucumber. Set them aside.
- In a blender, add the diced watermelon, sliced cucumber, fresh mint leaves, and lime juice. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
- If you prefer a smoother juice, pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl, pressing the pulp to extract as much juice as possible.
- Taste the juice and, if desired, add honey. Stir until it’s fully dissolved.
- Fill a tall glass with ice cubes and pour the juice over the ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint or a slice of cucumber for an extra touch.
Notes
- For an extra refreshing twist, chill your watermelon and cucumber in the refrigerator for a few hours before blending. This way, your juice will be icy cold without needing too much ice, which can dilute the flavors.
Can I make this juice ahead of time?
Yes, you can make this juice ahead of time. However, for the freshest taste, it’s best enjoyed immediately after preparation. If you do make it ahead, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
