Watermelon Mojito
Table of Contents
Ingredients:
- 2 cups chopped watermelon,
- 10–12 mint leaves,
- 1 lemon cut into small pieces or 2 tbsp lemon juice,
- 2–3 tbsp powdered sugar or honey,
- a pinch of black salt,
- 1 cup chilled soda/Sprite,
- and ice cubes as required.
Method of Preparation:
You can grind the watermelon pieces in a mixer and strain the juice, or use the watermelon cubes directly. In a tall glass, add 4–5 watermelon pieces, lemon slices, mint leaves, sugar, and a pinch of black salt.
Mash them lightly with a muddler or rolling pin to release the flavour of the lemon and mint. Now add ice cubes to the glass and pour the watermelon juice on top. Finally, add chilled soda or Sprite and stir lightly with a spoon. Garnish with mint leaves and watermelon pieces, and serve chilled.
