Watermelon Spritzer (Easy + only 5 Ingredients)
Watermelon Spritzer - If you are looking for a fun, non-alcoholic alternative this summer, this light and refreshing mocktail is for you!
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh watermelon
- 2-3 fresh mint leaves
- juice of 1 lime
- 4 teaspoons honey more to taste
- ice cubes
- 1 tablespoon club soda or more*
Instructions
- Blend: Roughly chop up 2-3 cups of watermelon; try to remove as many seeds as possible. Add to blender along with 2-3 fresh mint leaves, juice of 1 lime and 4 teaspoons honey. Blend until fully liquid.
- Adjust: Taste and, if you want it to be sweeter, add a little bit of honey at a time until you have reached your desired sweetness.
- Strain: Pour the watermelon mixture through a fine mesh sieve and into another container - this will ensure the consistency is smooth.
- Pour: Take a glass and add 3 cubes of watermelon (about 1x1 inch) as well as several ice cubes. Pour watermelon mixture over top, leaving about ½ inch or more at the top. Add a splash of club soda or other sparking water.
- Serve: Garnish with additional mint leaves and a slice of lime.
Notes
- Club Soda*: you could also use a fun watermelon mineral water to add additional flavor!
- Strain: don't skip the straining part - otherwise the consistency will be a bit weird and separation will occur.
