Tips

  • Make sure your cutting board doesn't stain with any other flavors because it will absorb it.
  • If your watermelon has seeds, make sure to remove them.
  • If you are sensitive to bitterness, a lime will produce that even the little white pith in between the flesh. Proceed with caution because if it's bitter that is your lemonade and not mine.
  • When you're ready to serve, you don't want to water it down with too much ice.
