• Add the cut watermelon, add to the blender, and add a cup of water, blend, and sieve, just as you did with the lemon.
• Add 2 cups of watermelon juice into a big jar (or bowl), plus ½ cup of the lemon juice water alongside one tablespoon of honey, stir well to combine.

Nigeria is Hot; Watermelon is a Hit!

I grew up in Nigeria, and it is scorching hot; one of the things that save the day is fresh, delicious watermelon. A slice goes a long way! I may be wrong, but I do think we get watermelon all year round in Nigeria! We ate them a lot, too, though I never made them into lemonades. Fortunately, this easy watermelon lemonade is another way to enjoy my favorite fruit!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

• Do you need sugar to make this watermelon lemonade?

Fortunately, with this recipe, we can loudly and proudly say, FORGET SUGAR – yeah, fo*k refined sugar or sugar syrup, because we do not need it!

• Can I make this watermelon lemonade ahead?

Oh, yes! You can absolutely make this healthy watermelon lemonade ahead. The best tip would be to keep the watermelon juice and lemon juice separate. Then, mix them whenever you wish to serve. I wouldn’t keep these for more than 4 days, though!

• How do you make watermelon taste good

I think we all can agree that watermelon already tastes great. However, a little lemon or ginger can give it an excellent flavor! Mint or basil are some herbs that equally go well with watermelon.
