Ingredients
  

4 cups ripe seedless watermelon, cubed

1 cup chilled coconut water

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Lime slices, for garnish

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: In a high-powered blender, combine the seedless watermelon cubes, honey (or agave syrup), fresh lime juice, and sea salt. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and free of any chunks, about 1 to 2 minutes.

    Strain the Juice (Optional): If you prefer a silky texture, pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a clean pitcher. Use the back of a spoon to gently press the liquid through, leaving pulp behind for a smoother drink.

      Mix: Once you have your juice strained, mix in the chilled coconut water. Stir gently until the two liquids are well combined, creating a refreshing tropical blend.

        Chill: For optimal refreshment, place the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. If you're in a hurry, feel free to serve it immediately over ice.

          Serve: In tall glasses, add a generous amount of ice cubes. Carefully pour the watermelon coconut mixture over the ice, allowing it to cascade beautifully.

            Garnish: Finish off each glass with a few fresh mint leaves and a slice of lime for an extra burst of color and freshness.

              Enjoy: Take a moment to appreciate the delightful aroma, then sip slowly to relish the cool, tropical flavors and healthful benefits of this hydrating refresher!
