Watermelon Juice

Plain watermelon juice is the best in the summer! It doesn't need anything extra.

From Vanessa: Thanks Lily! I agree. Watermelon is best drunk alone. I do like to mix it with some fruits every now and then. It does not mix well with vegetables.

Here are some of my favorite watermelon juice recipes. Give them a try!

Watermelon juice recipe #1:
3 medium slices of watermelon, rind removed
1 small slice of cantelople

Remove the rinds from both melons. Juice together and serve.

Watermelon juice recipe #2:
2 slices of watermelon, rind removed
1 green apple, cored

Core the apple and juice the watermelon with the apple. Serve.

Watermelon juice recipe #3:
2 slices of watermelon
1 large slice of pineapple

Juice the watermelon and pineapple together, serve.

Watermelon fizzy
3 slices of watermelon
sparkling water

Juice the watermelon and pour in a glass. Pour the sparkling water on top. Serve.

Melon blender juice

This melon works great in the blender too. To make a blender juice, Juice mix 2 cups of chunks, rind removed, in the blender. If it's hot out and you want it to be cold, put a few ice cubes in the recipe. Blend until smooth and drink. Heavenly!



In addition to it being so yummy, it has some great nutrients, too. It has a nice dose of vitamin A, C, iron and potassium. It's okay to juice the seeds, don't worry about that. The seeds contain nutrients too. As a general rule, two cups of chunked watermelon yields about 1 cup of juice. It has a high water content!
