Watermelon Juice



Watermelon  is my favorite fruit of summer :)


It quenches thirst, re-hydrates and full with goodness of health...




Ingredients

Watermelon  1 cup chopped roughly and chilled
Sugar / Honey  1 tsp
Lemon juice  1 tbsp
Salt - a pinch


Method

Cut the watermelon, deseed it. Take out the red pulpy layer and chop it roughly into pieces. Discard the outer white layer.

In a mixer add sugar and lemon juice and blend it along with watermelon. Refrigerate for a while and serve chilled. Do not add water as watermelon itself has water content in it.

Best when served chilled.Enjoy the easy yummy summer drink.

My Tips

You can replace sugar with honey.but I completely avoided sugar as water melon itself is sweet.

I refrigerated the watermelons so didnt add icecubes.

Adding salt or black salt gives a nice punch.

Have the juice fresh, after blending do not let it  for more time the freshness and taste will not be good.

And finally you can also add watermelon balls in juice it looks great and lovely.
