Few drinks capture the feeling of summer quite like a tall glass of something cold, pink, and bursting with fresh fruit. This blended and strained watermelon drink gets a bright lift from fresh lime juice and a subtle warmth from grated ginger, with just a touch of honey to round everything out. The result is silky-smooth and genuinely refreshing β nothing like the overly sweet, artificially flavored versions you'd find in a bottle. Because it's made entirely from whole, simple ingredients, there's no need to scan labels or worry about hidden additives that can sneak into packaged beverages. Straining the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve gives it that clean, juice-like texture that feels almost fancy without any real effort. Serve it over ice with a sprig of mint and a lime slice, and it looks like something straight off a restaurant menu. It's the kind of drink that disappears fast, so you might want to make a double batch.

Set a fine-mesh strainer over a pitcher and pour the blended mixture through it, pressing gently with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids left in the strainer.
