Ingredients

6 cups watermelon cubes, seedless
¼ cup fresh mint leaves
1 to 2 Tbsp. sugar or agave nectar

Steps

  1. In a blender, purée 3 cups of the watermelon along with the mint and sugar. Add the remaining 3 cups watermelon and purée until the mixture is smooth.

Notes

Culinate editor’s notes: Try replacing the watermelon with 3 to 4 cups of tea made with steeped hibiscus (jamaica) flowers. Use the same amount of mint and sugar, but steep the fresh mint along with the hibiscus.
