Ingredients
  

4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed

1 cup coconut water

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional)

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Ice cubes

Lime wheels, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: Start by cutting the watermelon into cubes. You should have about 4 cups when finished. For an extra refreshing touch, consider freezing half of the watermelon cubes for a slushy effect.

    Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the cubed watermelon, coconut water, lime juice, and honey or agave syrup if you prefer a touch of sweetness. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.

      Strain (Optional): If you prefer a smoother texture, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher to remove any pulp. This step is optional; you can enjoy it as is if you like a thicker consistency.

        Chill the Refresher: Place the pitcher in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes to chill, allowing the flavors to meld.

          Serve: When ready to serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the chilled watermelon coconut refresher over the ice.

            Garnish: Top each glass with fresh mint leaves and a lime wheel for a beautiful presentation.

              Enjoy: Sip and savor the light, refreshing taste that screams tropical bliss!
