Ingredients
  

4 cups seedless watermelon, cut into cubes

1 cup coconut water

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Ice cubes

Lime wheels, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: Begin by cutting the seedless watermelon into uniform cubes until you have approximately 4 cups. For a refreshingly slushy texture, consider freezing half of the watermelon cubes for later use in the drink.

    Blend the Ingredients: In a high-speed blender, add the watermelon cubes, coconut water, fresh lime juice, and honey or agave syrup if desired. Blend the mixture on high for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, until it is smooth and homogenous.

      Strain (Optional): If you enjoy a smoother drink, strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to eliminate any pulp. This step is optional, as the drink can be enjoyed with the pulp for added texture.

        Chill the Refresher: Place the pitcher in the refrigerator and chill for 20-30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully and the refresher to cool down.

          Serve: To serve, fill each glass halfway with ice cubes, then pour the chilled watermelon and coconut mixture over the ice, filling the glass to your desired level.

            Garnish: Enhance the visual appeal and flavor by garnishing each glass with fresh mint leaves and a lime wheel placed on the rim.

              Enjoy: Take a moment to delight in the refreshing, tropical taste of your watermelon coconut refresher. Sip and enjoy the delightful flavors of summer with every sip!
