Time 5m

Yield 3 to 4 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 cups peeled, seeded watermelon, diced
1/2 cup sugar, or as needed
Lime wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Puree the diced watermelon with 4 cups cold water in blender. Blend until smooth, and then pour into a pitcher - any ground seeds should remain in the bottom. Add 6 cups cold water and sweeten with sugar, as needed. Garnish with lime wedges.

Tips:

  • Select the best watermelon: Choose a watermelon that is heavy for its size, has a smooth rind, and a yellow spot on the bottom where it rested on the ground.
  • Chill the watermelon: For the best flavor, chill the watermelon for at least 2 hours before serving.
  • Use a blender or juicer: You can use either a blender or a juicer to make agua de sandia. If you use a blender, you will need to strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds or pulp.
  • Add other fruits and flavors: Feel free to add other fruits and flavors to your agua de sandia, such as lime juice, mint, or cucumber.
  • Serve immediately: Agua de sandia is best served immediately after it is made.

Conclusion:
