Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Refreshing Watermelon Lemonade.
Step 1
Begin by placing the cubed watermelon into a blender, blending it until you achieve a silky smooth puree.
Step 2
To ensure a refined texture, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve, discarding any pulp.
Step 3
In a saucepan, combine sugar with half a cup of water, heating it over medium-high heat until the sugar fully dissolves, which should take about five minutes.
Step 4
Once dissolved, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in three cups of cold water along with the freshly squeezed lemon juice for a zesty kick.
Step 5
Prepare twelve glasses filled with ice cubes, then generously scoop two to three tablespoons of the vibrant watermelon puree into each glass.
Step 6
Pour the refreshing lemonade mixture over the puree, allowing the colors to swirl together.
Step 7
Give it a gentle stir to blend the flavors before serving, and enjoy a delightful sip of summer in every glass.
