Seed Oil Free Paleo Watermelon Lime Cooler

Warm weather calls for something cold, bright, and genuinely refreshing, and this watermelon lime cooler delivers on every count. Fresh watermelon gets blended smooth and strained into pure, jewel-red juice, then balanced with zippy lime, a touch of honey, and a pinch of sea salt that makes the whole thing pop. Topped off with sparkling water, it's fizzy and light without any of the mystery ingredients hiding in store-bought drinks or flavored sodas. Seed oils have a way of sneaking into packaged beverages through emulsifiers and additives, so making your own from scratch is the cleanest route possible — and honestly, it tastes so much better anyway. The honey rounds out the tartness without overpowering the natural sweetness of the watermelon, and the sea salt is a small but brilliant touch that keeps it from tasting flat. Garnish with a sprig of mint and a lime wheel and it looks like something you'd pay too much for at a rooftop bar. This one is easy enough to throw together on a weeknight but impressive enough to serve at a backyard gathering.
