Pecan Free Classic Watermelon Lemonade

Few drinks capture the feeling of summer quite like a tall glass of something cold, pink, and citrusy. This refreshing blend of fresh watermelon juice and bright lemon juice is naturally vibrant and completely free from tree nuts of any kind — every ingredient is straightforward and easy to verify. The simple syrup comes together in just a few minutes on the stovetop, and blending the watermelon before straining it through a fine-mesh sieve gives you a silky-smooth, pulp-free base that looks stunning in the glass. A squeeze of fresh lemon balances the sweetness of the melon beautifully, and you can dial the syrup up or down depending on how tart you like it. Served over ice with a sprig of mint and a lemon slice, it's the kind of drink that disappears fast at backyard gatherings or lazy afternoon hangs. It's also incredibly easy to scale up for a crowd — just multiply the ingredients and keep a big pitcher chilled in the fridge.
