Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Watermelon
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional)
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 cup Sparkling water
- 2 whole Strawberries (for garnish)
Instructions
Cut the watermelon and pineapple into small chunks if not already prepared.
In a blender, combine watermelon, pineapple chunks, orange juice, lemon juice, and honey (if using). Blend until smooth.
Place a fine-mesh strainer over a large bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended mixture through the strainer to remove any pulp, pressing gently with a spoon to extract as much juice as possible.
Add fresh mint leaves to the strained juice and muddle lightly to release their fragrant oils.
Fill two serving glasses halfway with ice cubes.
Pour the juice mixture into the glasses, leaving some space at the top.
Top each glass with sparkling water for a fizzy touch.
Garnish with halved strawberries and a sprig of fresh mint.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Fruity Summer Cooler!
