Sweet Watermelon Tonic
This watermelon tonic cools your body and cleanses the system. A perfect drink for the hot summers.One of my all time favorite juices. When looking for watermelon ripeness, the underside of the melon which touched the ground should be a yellowish color. Slap the side of the watermelon; if ripe, it will resonate with a hollow thump.
Ingredients
- 1 watermelon
- 4 cups chilled mineral water
- juice of 2 limes
- some honey for taste
Method
1 Cut the watermelon into chunks cutting away the skin and removing the seeds. Place in a large bowl and add the mineral water and keep for 10 minutes.
2 Tip this mixture over a large sieve into a fresh bowl using a wooden spoon gently press over the fruit to extract the juice.
3 Stir with lime juice and add some honet to sweeten the flavor.
4 Pour into a glass and serve
