Time 10m

Yield 2 quarts, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 cups watermelon
2 quarts water

Steps:

  • Puree the watermelon in a blender.
  • In a 2 quart pitcher, combine the sugar and the lemon juice. Stir well.
  • Stir in the pureed watermelon.
  • Stir in the water.
  • Adjust sweetness to taste. This is meant to be lightly sweet, so the flavor of the watermelon comes through.
  • Serve over ice.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe watermelon: The riper the watermelon, the sweeter and more flavorful the lemonade will be. Look for a watermelon that is heavy for its size, has a deep red color, and a yellow spot on the bottom where it rested on the vine.
  • Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemons will give your lemonade a brighter, more citrusy flavor. If you only have bottled lemon juice, use half the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling the watermelon, lemons, and water before making the lemonade will help it stay cold and refreshing for longer.
  • Add sweetener to taste: The amount of sweetener you add to your lemonade is a matter of personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Garnish with fresh mint or watermelon slices: A garnish of fresh mint or watermelon slices will add a pop of color and flavor to your lemonade.

Conclusion:

Watermelon lemonade is a refreshing and delicious summer drink that is easy to make at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a pitcher of lemonade that will be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a refreshing drink to quench your thirst, give watermelon lemonade a try. You won't be disappointed!
