Watermelon Mint Juice — Summer in a Glass

Watermelon is 92% water. Blending it produces juice almost effortlessly — no squeezing, no heavy work. The mint is the upgrade. A few fresh leaves completely change the character of the drink, adding a cool, herbal note that makes it feel more sophisticated than its three-ingredient simplicity suggests.

Ingredients

• 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
• 8 to 10 fresh mint leaves
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• Pinch of sea salt
• Ice for serving

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend for 30 seconds. Strain through a fine mesh strainer if you want a clear juice. Pour over ice and garnish with a sprig of mint. Serve within 20 minutes — watermelon juice oxidizes quickly.
