Ingredients
- 4 cups seedless watermelon chunks
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- Place watermelon chunks in a blender and blend until completely smooth.
- Pour the puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing with a spoon to extract all liquid.
- Whisk in the sugar, lime juice, lemon juice and salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Notes
