Watermelon Mint Cooler

Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cubed seedless watermelon
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cups sparkling water chilled
  • Ice for serving
  • Mint sprigs and small watermelon wedges for garnish

Instructions

  • Blend the watermelon cubes in a blender until completely smooth, about 30 seconds.
  • Pour the blended watermelon through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher, pressing with a spoon to push the juice through and leave the pulp behind.
  • Whisk the lime juice and honey into the strained watermelon juice until the honey fully dissolves.
  • Cover and chill the mixture for 20 minutes.
  • Fill eight glasses with ice.
  • Stir the chilled base once, then top the pitcher with the sparkling water, pouring slowly down the side.
  • Pour over the ice and garnish each glass with a mint sprig, lightly pressed between your fingers, and a small watermelon wedge on the rim.

Good to Know

Strained watermelon juice keeps two days covered in the fridge; add the sparkling water only right before the next pour.
