6–8 fresh mint leaves (plus more for garnish)
1/2cup cold water or coconut water
Ice cubes
Instructions
Add watermelon, lime juice, mint leaves, honey (if using), and water to a blender. Blend until smooth.

Chill watermelon before blending for an extra cold drink without diluting it.
Use coconut water for added electrolytes and a tropical twist.
Adjust sweetness to taste or skip sweetener altogether for a sugar-free version.
