Categories     beverage

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds diced seedless watermelon (enough to yield about 3 cups of juice)
16 ounces limeade
12 ounces ginger beer
1/2 cup basil leaves
1 lime, sliced into wheels

Steps:

  • Put the watermelon in a blender and purée on high speed until liquified, about 15 seconds. Combine the watermelon juice, limeade and ginger beer in a large pitcher.
  • Drop basil leaves into 4 large glasses and use the back of a wooden spoon to crush and muddle the basil. Pour the watermelon drink into the glasses and garnish each with a lime slice.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and juicy watermelon: The quality of your watermelon will greatly impact the taste of your spritz. Look for a watermelon that is heavy for its size, has a deep red color, and sounds hollow when you tap it.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice adds a bright and tangy flavor to the spritz. Avoid using bottled lime juice, as it can taste artificial and harsh.
  • Add a sweetener to taste: The amount of sweetener you add will depend on your personal preference. If you like your drinks tart, you can use less sweetener. If you prefer a sweeter drink, you can add more.
  • Chill your ingredients before making the spritz: This will help to ensure that your spritz is nice and cold and refreshing.
  • Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint: This will add a pop of color and flavor to your spritz.

Conclusion:

The watermelon and lime spritz is a delicious and refreshing drink that is perfect for summer entertaining. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like your drinks tart or sweet, this spritz is sure to please. So next time you are looking for a refreshing and delicious drink, give the watermelon and lime spritz a try.
