About watermelon juice

Homemade watermelon juice is just ready in 5 minutes without using any juicer. High in water content and a perfect fruit to treat heatstroke in summers. We can eat the fruit as it is or make juice out of it. In both ways, it tastes amazing.

I mostly prefer to eat the whole fruit because while juicing it lost some of its fibre. But sometimes, watermelon becomes very soft in texture, not good for eating then juicing is the perfect solution. Please check out my other refreshing drinks

Ingredients required for making watermelon mint juice

Watermelon – ripe, bright rea coloured, sweet watermelon is perfect for juicing. As it is naturally sweetened, we don’t need to add any sugar to it. But, if it is not sweet enough, add a little honey or maple syrup.

Mint leaves – the addition of mint leaves gives a nice flavour as well as increase the digestibility of the juice.

Lemon juice– it is rich in vitamin C, helps in boosting immunity and gives a yummy tangy taste to the juice. You can also add ginger if you like. Other fruits like orange, strawberry can also be added.

Black pepper and black salt – add the flavour and helps in absorbing various nutrients in the body.

Step by step preparation of watermelon mint juice at home

1. Wash the watermelon and cut it from the centre and then make pieces out of it. Take out the rind and make small size pieces. We will get around 500-600 gm from 1 kg watermelon.

2. Try to remove seeds as much as possible. Put watermelon pieces in the refrigerator for about 3-4 hours so that it gets nicely chilled. Sometimes, if we forget to refrigerate, in that case, we can add some ice to the juice or chill the ready juice later on.

3. Once they get chilled, transfer them to a blender. Don’t worry about the seeds, if there is any. Blend it for just 15-20 seconds. Now add mint leaves and again blend it for 10-20 seconds.

4. Strain the juice in a bowl. 

5. Add salt, black pepper powder and lemon juice. Mix it well. 

6. Now add ice cubes to a glass jug and transfer juice in it. Stir it well.

7. Pour in the glasses, garnish with mint leaves and served cold. ENJOY!
