Equipment

blender
strainer (optional)
muddler or spoon
mixing glass
serving glasses

Ingredients

2 cups cubed ripe watermelon (or melon of choice)
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
6–8 fresh mint leaves
1–2 tsp maple syrup or agave syrup (to taste)
1/2 cup sparkling water (lime-flavored or plain)
1 cup ice cubes
2 melon balls, mint sprigs, or lime slices for garnish

Instructions

Blend the cubed melon until smooth. Strain if a smoother texture is desired.
Muddle mint leaves gently in a glass to release oils without tearing.
Add the melon juice, lime juice, and maple syrup. Stir to combine.
Add ice cubes, then top off with sparkling water. Stir gently.
Garnish with melon balls, mint, or lime slices. Serve immediately.

Notes

Swap watermelon for honeydew or cantaloupe. Use maple syrup, agave, or go sugar-free with stevia. Add strawberries or cucumber for a twist, or kombucha for tang. Garnish with melon balls and mint sprigs for style.
