Few drinks capture the feeling of summer quite like a tall glass of this blended watermelon refresher. It's bright, lightly sweet, and finished with a squeeze of fresh lime that makes every sip taste like it came from a street cart in the best possible way. The process is beautifully simple โ blend, strain, season, and pour โ so you can have a pitcher ready in minutes without any cooking or special equipment beyond a blender and a fine-mesh strainer. A pinch of salt might sound unexpected, but it quietly deepens the watermelon flavor and keeps the drink from tasting flat. Since this is made entirely from whole fruit, citrus, water, and a touch of sugar, there's nothing hidden to worry about โ no sauces, no blends, no pantry staples that might sneak in unwanted allergens. It's naturally free of anything processed, which makes it an easy, crowd-pleasing choice for backyard gatherings or anyone navigating ingredient sensitivities. Serve it over ice with a wedge of lime on the rim and it looks as good as it tastes.

Add the watermelon cubes and cold water to a blender and blend on high until completely smooth, about 30โ45 seconds.
Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large pitcher. Pour the blended watermelon through the strainer, pressing gently on the solids with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the pulp left in the strainer.
