Watermelon Mocktail FAQs
Can I use frozen watermelon in this mocktail?
Yes. Let the cubes soften just enough to blend, then mix the fruit with fresh lime before adding chilled sparkling water. Frozen fruit will make the mocktail slushier and may reduce the need for ice. Add the bubbles last so they are not lost in the blender.
Can I strain the watermelon?
You can, but the listed fiber and other nutrients then no longer describe the drink accurately.
Does this need simple syrup?
Ripe watermelon usually supplies enough sweetness; taste before adding any.
