The perfect summer mocktail is light and refreshing, and this tangy combination of fresh watermelon juice, lime juice, and a splash of club soda certainly fits the bill. Watermelon juice can be purchased at most grocery stores, especially in the summertime. However if you can’t find it, place cubed watermelon without the rind in a blender, blend until smooth, and then pass the mixture through a strainer. Store in the refrigerator until ready to drink.
Watch the video above to see a demonstration of how to make this watermelon-lime mocktail, or read the recipe instructions below. If you’re feeling spicy and want to turn this into a true cocktail, add some tequila for a perfectly balanced poolside drink.
