Notes

Use fully ripe watermelon for the sweetest and juiciest flavor. Adjust the amount of honey according to your taste preference or omit it entirely if the watermelon is naturally sweet enough. Coconut water enhances hydration and adds a light tropical flavor, but plain water or sparkling water also work well. For a more cooling effect, refrigerate all ingredients before blending.

Tips

  1. Always use fresh and cold ingredients for a crisp, refreshing taste.

  2. Add a few cucumber slices for extra hydration and freshness.

  3. For a party version, mix in some chilled sparkling water right before serving.

  4. Freeze watermelon cubes in advance to avoid using extra ice that dilutes the flavor.

  5. To make it visually appealing, serve in clear glasses with colorful straws and fruit garnishes.
