Preparation steps
Step 1
First, prepare the watermelon. If you can't find a 2.5 kg watermelon as specified in the recipe, use a quarter of a large watermelon to make cocktails for 6 people. Carefully scoop out the flesh, cut it into pieces, and remove all seeds.
Step 2
Thoroughly wash the limes. Then, using a fine grater, remove the zest. Cut the limes in half and squeeze out the juice. Transfer the prepared watermelon pulp, zest, and freshly squeezed lime juice into a blender.
Step 3
Add sugar and ice cubes to the blender with the rest of the ingredients. Blend everything until smooth. If the cocktail seems too thick, add a little bottled or boiled water and blend again until desired consistency.
Step 4
Pour the prepared watermelon and lime cocktail into large glasses. Place two wide straws in each glass. To give the drink a more festive look, you can garnish it with lime wedges or thinly sliced zest.
Enjoy your meal!
