Description

A refreshing traditional Mexican drink made with fresh watermelon, perfect for hot summer days.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh watermelon, cubed
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)


Instructions

  1. Combine in a blender the watermelon, water, lime juice, and sugar. Blend until smooth.
  2. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher to remove any pulp, if desired.
  3. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Serve over ice and garnish with lime slices, if desired.

Notes

Consider using stevia for a no-calorie sweetness option. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
