Life doesn’t get simpler than this. Watermelon juice with nothing in it except….watermelon! I just cut up a seedless watermelon, removed the rind, put the fruit in a blender and then strained the juice out. Its even easier if you have a juicer; you don’t have to do the straining separately.

I decided not to add anything to the juice because it tasted fresh, fantastic, super fabulous all by itself.

But here are some great additions to watermelon juice:

• Sugar, honey or any other sweetener
• A pinch of Indian black salt, which always pairs well with fruits
• Lemon or lime juice
• Lemon or lime zest
• Mint
• Basil
• Alcohol (highly recommended!) – rum, tequilla or cahaca (my favorite)
• A little club soda to make watermelon spritzer (thanks Aparna!)

You cant go wrong with mixing and matching any of the above.
