Materials

  • 1 Each Watermelon

Instructions

  • Set aside diced watermelon in a bowl. Cut the 2nd half.
  • In the blender, add some of the diced watermelon and fill with the water. Blend until smooth.
  • Pour almost all of the juice into a container, leaving about 1-2 inches of juice in the blender.
