Ingredients:
- 4 cups cubed watermelon (seeds removed)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (hulled)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- Ice cubes, for serving
- Mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions:
- Place the cubed watermelon, strawberries, and blueberries into a blender. The sweet fragrance of watermelon will immediately lift your spirits.
- Pour in the freshly squeezed lemon juice, which adds a tangy zest to the mix.
- Add the honey or agave syrup if you prefer a sweeter juice. This step is optional, depending on the natural sweetness of your fruits.
- Blend everything on high until you have a smooth, luscious liquid. The mixture will have a beautiful, vibrant red color that’s incredibly inviting.

- Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint, adding a pop of green and a herbaceous aroma.
Helpful Tips and Variations:

- Replace honey with maple syrup for a different flavor profile or use dates for a natural sweetener.
- Add a splash of soda water for a sparkling twist, ideal for parties.
- To make this an elegant presentation, serve in mason jars with a slice of lemon on the rim.
