  • Final Blend: Process pairing ingredients with watermelon juice for 30-45 seconds. For herb variations, steep 10-15 minutes before straining.

 

  • Chill and Serve: Refrigerate for 30 minutes minimum. Serve over ice in chilled glasses with appropriate garnish.

Notes

  • Fruit Selection: Choose watermelons that yield slightly to pressure but maintain firmness
  • Storage: Refrigerate in airtight glass containers for 3-4 days maximum
  • Freezing: Can be frozen up to 6 months; thaw slowly in refrigerator
  • Substitutions: Replace honey with maple syrup for vegan option; use stevia for low-calorie version
  • Batch Prep: Recipe scales easily for larger quantities; cube watermelon 2 days ahead
