Making watermelon lemonade, step by step recipe
So, squeeze the juice out of the lemons. Strain through a strainer to remove seeds and pulp.
Cut the watermelon pulp into cubes.
Place in a blender.
Grind until a homogeneous mass is obtained.
Strain through a strainer.
No pulp is needed.
You should have half a liter of watermelon juice. Since watermelons are very juicy berries, one should be more than enough.
All ingredients are prepared. Take a mixing container. Fill half with watermelon juice.
And add the rest of the liquids: syrup, lemon juice, water.
Add ice. You can decorate with a slice of watermelon and lemon.
I recommend consuming it immediately after preparation.
Incredibly refreshing and invigorating.
PS: If the watermelon is especially bony, then it is better not to grind the pulp with a blender, but to mash the pulp with a potato masher and strain.
The ratios can be changed to suit your taste preferences.
