Easy Muskmelon Juice Recipe
A chilled muskmelon juice blended with lemon, sugar, and a pinch of salt for a refreshing, mojito style drink. Ready in just 6 minutes with no cooking needed.
Ingredients
- ½ cup muskmelon pieces (about 75 to 80 g)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (12 to 15 g, or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (15 ml)
- 1 pinch salt (about 1/8 teaspoon, or to taste)
- ½ cup chilled water (120 ml)
- 4 to 5 ice cubes
Instructions
- Wash the muskmelon well, then remove the outer skin and seeds and cut it into medium-size pieces.
- Add the muskmelon pieces, sugar, lemon juice, salt, and half a cup of chilled water into a grinding jar. Blend everything until it turns into a smooth muskmelon mixture.
- Add a few ice cubes to a serving glass and pour the muskmelon mixture over them. Stir well so everything combines evenly.
- If you like, garnish with muskmelon pieces and a lemon slice, then serve right away.
Notes
- Use a ripe muskmelon for the best natural sweetness.
- Remove all skin and seeds so the juice doesn’t turn bitter or gritty.
- Blend until completely smooth for the best texture.
- Adjust sugar and salt to taste depending on how sweet your muskmelon is.
