5 star rating
 

Submitted by: cybercook

 

Pureed watermelon, with lime juice and sugar, is the base for this refreshing non-alcoholic beverage, which gets its sparkle from club soda.
 

Ingredients

  • 8 cups watermelon (peeled, seeded and cut up)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 liter seltzer water or club soda, chilled
  • Lime slices
 
Method

In the jar of a blender combine the watermelon, the water, the sugar and the lime juice. Process until mixture is smooth. (If blender is small in capacity, process in two batches.) Pour through a coarse strainer into a large pitcher. Cover and refrigerate until very cold, about 4 hours. At serving time, add crushed ice to margarita glasses. Stir seltzer into watermelon mixture. Fill glasses with the watermelon mixture. If desired, garnish with fresh lime slices. Serve immediately.

 

Notes: Wonderful on a hot summer day.

 

Number of Servings: 6
