You literally just scoop ripe, juicy watermelon into a blender, blend, and serve! Now, there are a few tricks to the trade, which we’ll be sharing in this post. So without further ado, let us show you how it’s done!
How to Make Watermelon Juice
It’s really as simple as adding to a blender and blending it up! But there are a few tricks to learn to ensure success every time:
Use ripe, juicy, sweet watermelon (this is key for best flavor!) Choose a seedless watermelon, or remove seeds before blending A high-speed blender is quickest and easiest (we don’t recommend a food processor) Straining is optional if you prefer a smoother juice; however, we don’t find it necessary Like cold juice? Scoop and refrigerate your watermelon BEFORE blending so it’s cool and refreshing and ready for serving right away
Health Benefits
Ever wonder why watermelon feels so refreshing on a hot summer day? That’s in part because it’s 92% water! But it’s also rich in potassium, which is an electrolyte that can be lost in sweat. Watermelon also contains a variety of antioxidants (such as lycopene, vitamin C, and beta-carotene), magnesium, vitamins B1 and B6, and more!
What To Do With Watermelon Juice
It’s the perfect drink for sipping on hot days! If you can’t enjoy it right away, store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 2-3 days. Or, freeze into ice cube molds and blend into smoothies, margaritas, or frozen cocktails, or use as ice cubes in sparkling water or tonics for a delicious and colorful surprise!
