Ah, that’s a refreshing, nutrient-packed juice—sweet, earthy, and slightly spicy from the ginger. Here’s a simple recipe:
Ingredients (Serves 2–3)
- 2 cups watermelon, cubed and seeds removed
- 1 medium carrot, peeled
- 1 small beetroot, peeled
- 1-inch piece of fresh ginger (adjust to taste)
- Juice of 1/2 lemon (optional, for brightness)
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
1. Prepare the ingredients
- Cut the watermelon into cubes.
- Peel and chop the carrot and beetroot into small pieces for easier juicing.
- Peel the ginger.
2. Juice it
Option 1: Using a Juicer
- Add watermelon, carrot, beetroot, and ginger to the juicer.
- Collect the juice in a jug.
Option 2: Using a Blender
- Add all ingredients with 1/2 cup water.
- Blend until smooth.
- Strain with a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth if you prefer a smoother juice.
3. Add finishing touches
- Squeeze in lemon juice if using.
- Serve over ice cubes if desired.
Tips & Variations
- Add a pinch of black salt or cayenne for a tangy/spicy twist.
- Swap half the watermelon with pineapple for extra sweetness.
- Drink immediately for maximum nutrients—especially vitamin C and antioxidants.
If you want, I can also give a batch recipe that makes a liter of this juice and keeps it fresh for 1–2 days in the fridge. That way you can sip all day without repeating prep.
Do you want me to do that?
