Watermelon Grape Refresher: A Perfect Summertime Cooler

When the sun blazes high and the air is thick with heat, there’s nothing more satisfying than a cold, fruity drink that quenches your thirst and invigorates your senses. Enter the Watermelon Grape Refresher — a naturally sweet, hydrating beverage packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and vibrant flavor. This cooling drink combines the lush, juicy essence of watermelon with the subtle tartness of grapes for a revitalizing summer treat.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to making this refreshing drink right at home.

🍉 Ingredients:

• 3 cups seedless watermelon (cubed and chilled)
• 1½ cups red or green grapes (washed and chilled)
• Juice of 1 lime (optional for tanginess)
• 6–8 fresh mint leaves
• 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional)
• ½ cup cold water or coconut water
• Ice cubes (as needed)
• Mint sprig and grape slice for garnish (optional)

🥄 Equipment:

• Blender
• Fine mesh strainer (optional)
• Pitcher or serving glass
• Knife and cutting board
• Spoon for stirring

🧃 Step-by-Step Method:

Step 1: Prep the Fruits

Start by cutting the watermelon into bite-sized cubes. Remove the seeds if you’re not using seedless watermelon. Wash the grapes thoroughly under cold water, and remove them from the stem. For a bolder flavor, freeze the grapes a few hours beforehand — they double as flavorful ice cubes that won’t dilute your drink.

Step 2: Blend to Perfection

In a blender, combine the watermelon cubes and grapes. Add the fresh mint leaves and the juice of one lime (if using) for a zesty note. Pour in the cold water or coconut water, then blend until smooth. If you’d like a sweeter drink, add a tablespoon of honey or agave syrup and blend again.
