Watermelon juice recipe | How to make watermelon juice

By swasthi , on May 26, 2020, 10 Comments, Jump to Recipe

Watermelon juice recipe – Watermelon is one of the best thirst quenchers and can be an instant remedy to sunstroke or heat during summer. It is has a moisture content of up to 92% and hence can keep us hydrated. Watermelon is high in lycopene, an antioxidant that protects our body from free radicals which otherwise can harm the healthy system.

Watermelon is also a good source of vitamin C, Vitamin A, biotin and many other nutrients.

I make watermelon juice, without any other additives except few spices or herbs. The juice in the pictures is plain juice with a dash of lemon juice and pepper powder.

I sometimes use ginger, few mint leaves, sabja seeds or chia seeds as well. Whenever we buy watermelon, a part of it goes to the refrigerator, the next day I make the juice with the chilled watermelon.

how to make watermelon juice

Watermelon seeds are edible so I just use up the white tender/ young watermelon seeds to make the juice.

There are so simple many ways of using up a surplus watermelon, make watermelon ice cubes and then add them to lemonade when ever needed.

To make ice cubes, just pour watermelon juice in the ice tray and freeze them. The same can be used to make Popsicles as well.

Pour the juice in the Popsicle molds, steel cups or disposable cups, cover with a foil and place the ice cream sticks and freeze until set.

Watermelon juice can be made in a blender or a cold press juicer whatever you have. Since watermelon has lot of moisture, there is no need to add additional liquid even if making the juice in a blender.

Weight watchers should consume watermelon instead of the juice since the fiber takes some time to digest. So you may feel fuller for little longer which will suppress the hunger.

But juice digests quickly and infact makes us feel hungry quickly. So it is good to serve this juice to kids & toddlers about 45 to 60 mins before a meal.

    This is delicious! I added a small amount of ginger, 2 mint leaves, water, 1/2 a lime in the blender. I froze the watermelon first so I didn’t need any ice cubes. It tasted perfect. I will definitely make this again!

    Might try and make this over the weekend. Can you tell me when to add mint leaves in process or is it a decorative item? I grow mint in my backyard and love trying new ways to use it! Can’t wait!
