This watermelon lemonade is an easy and healthy drink, perfect for a summer day.
The base of this recipe, as every good lemonade is lemon juice. To have this beautiful pink color and sweetness we will add watermelon. If you can find seedless watermelon perfect, if not, don’t worry, you can use any watermelon and strain the lemon and watermelon seeds.
I used brown sugar. The quantity is illustrative; I added 6 tablespoons of brown sugar in my lemonade, the flavor stills acid, but you can always sweeten your lemonade or serve with sugar to adapt it to each person, as we do with coffee.
Of course, you can sweeten your lemonade with honey or any other sugar free sweetener, start with 3 tablespoons and taste the drink to adjust the quantities.
You can use any blender or kitchen robot to grind the watermelon with a glass of water and later strain it with a strainer to avoid seeds obtaining your tasty watermelon juice.
You can repeat the same method to prepare your lemon juice. You can grind your lemons (with or without peel, you don’t need to peel the lemons, just clean the peel before grind them), and strain the lemon juice using a strainer or the Thermomix little basket to obtain the juice.
Follow the same steps as with the watermelon lemonade: prepare the watermelon juice with sugar and water, the lemon juice, and later grind everything with 3 ice cups to have an amazing pink lemonade slush.
Of course, I prefer a subtle mint flavor, adding a mint leave on every lemonade glass, but if you really like mint you can extract the mint oil with your kitchen mortar and mix it with the lemon juice.
This is the best part of this homemade drink. In 10 minutes you will make your homemade pink lemonade with watermelon.
You choose, it depends of how much you love sparkling drinks. I love them so I used sparkling water, but you can add natural water and the drink will be delicious anyway.
No, the pink lemonade with watermelon you see in the photos doesn’t have any artificial flavors on it, the pink color comes from the natural watermelon juice and the brown sugar.
