Notes
Choose a ripe watermelon if you are making homemade juice. A ripe watermelon will result in a sweeter cocktail.
Adjust the acidity and spiciness depending on your personal preference.
Use freshly squeezed lime juice over bottled for a more vibrant cocktail.
Leftover watermelon juice will stay good in the fridge for a few days. Drink it as is or add sparkling water and lime juice for a great mocktail.
