• Add the watermelon cubes to a blender.

  Add lime juice and mint, if using.

  Blend until completely smooth.

  Strain through a fine mesh sieve if you prefer a smoother texture.

  Pour over ice and enjoy right away!

Storage Tips

• Fresh watermelon water is best when enjoyed immediately, but it can be stored in a sealed glass container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Shake well before serving, as natural separation may occur.

  You can also freeze it in ice cube trays to blend into smoothies or chill other drinks with a burst of flavor.

Flavor Variations

• With cucumber: Add a few slices of cucumber for a spa-water feel

  With ginger: A small piece of fresh ginger adds a spicy, anti-inflammatory kick

  With basil or mint: Fresh herbs make it extra refreshing

  With sparkling water: Top it off with bubbles for a light, fizzy mocktail
