Equipment

• Blender
• Gallon sized mason jar or large pitcher
• Mesh strainer
• Fine mesh strainer
• Wooden spoon

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 6 cups Watermelon
• 1 Cucumber
• 3 T. Lime juice approx. 2 limes
• 20 leaves Mint, 1 handful
• ¼ cup Monk Fruit sweetener, optional

Instructions

 

• Cut watermelon and remove from rind.
• Peel cucumber and cut in half.
• Wash mint, remove from stems.
• Cut lime in half.
• In the blender, add the watermelon, cucumber, and mint. For a smaller blender, you can do 2 batches.
• Put a mesh strainer over the opening of your jar and slowly pour in the juice. Use the back of a wooden spoon to push the juice through the strainer.

  *see note below on this step
• Squeeze lime juice into the pitcher and stir.
• Give it a taste and see if you want to add your sweetener of choice.
• Add water to fill up the pitcher or jar.

  *see note below on this step
• Chill 30 minutes and enjoy.

Notes

 

*Note on Step 6: You can totally skip this step if you want a thicker juice with pulp. If you do, I suggest blending it again with ice and drinking it like a smoothie. 

*Note on Step 9: I did it in a gallon sized mason jar and it ended up being a little less than ½ gallon of water. The 1:1 ratio of juice to water does not change if the size of the container changes. To save on fridge space in the past, I have also made it where I added the water as I poured it into the glasses.
