Steps

1 Done	Chop The Watermelon Cut your watermelon into thick wedges then remove the skin and chop into cubes. Add the watermelon cubes to a blender.
2 Done	Blend & Strain Add the juice of 2 limes to the blender then blend for about 30 seconds. Pour the liquid into a large jug fitted with a fine mesh strainer to catch the pulp. I usually strain twice. Next, taste the juice. If it needs more sweetness add honey and if needs more citrus, add more lime juice then blend again. Once it's at your desired taste, add sparkling or soda water and stir with a spoon.
3 Done	Serve To serve, pour the watermelon mocktail over ice and serve with a lime wedge. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
