Ingredients
- 3 cups Watermelon deseeded and cubed

- 2 tablespoons Honey/ Maple Syrup/ Sugar or to taste as per your liking
- ¼ cup Lemon Juice
- 1 inch Ginger Piece
- 12-15 Mint Leaves
- 2 cups Water
- Ice cubes
- Lemon Slices
Instructions
- To start with, add watermelon cubes, strawberries, ginger, mint, honey, and water in blender jar and blend until smooth.
- Pass the juice mixture through fine mesh or sieve into the pitcher, add lemon juice and mix.
- Put few ice cubes, few fresh mint and lemon slices in serving glasses, pour the prepared lemonade and serve chilled.
Notes
- Strawberry Watermelon Lemonade is best served fresh from the blender. If you'd like to get ahead with your preparations, cube the watermelon, hull the strawberries and juice your lemon ahead of time. Then all you have to do is blend and strain!
- If you are making a big batch of this summer beverage for a gathering, I recommend leaving a spoon or ladle nearby to give it a good stir before serving as it will tend to separate over time.
- If you'd like more fiber in your beverage, feel free to omit the straining step. It'll be more like a Strawberry Lemonade smoothie, but you'll retain the extra nutrition from the fruit pulp.
- Feel free to swap in lime juice for the lemon and make yourself a delightful Watermelon Strawberry Limeade instead. Yum!
- For a lower carb version of this drink, swap in a sugar free sweetener like stevia or monkfruit to taste. Serve as a 50/50 split with sparkling water for a refreshing spritzer.
