Watermelon Juice

WIth all types  of Water Melons available now ...  the striped oblong ones , the small green round ones , and Now we have the Chinese yellow ones!!!   Well Well ........  !!!


BUT my favourite is the good ole green round one..... very juicy and sweet.

Ingredients:

One whole Water Melon whichever variety you get.....  
a bottle of  Rose or Rasberry syrup ( I prefer Rex Syrup as it is quiet thick) but any other good make will do.
Crushed Ice
2 glasses of water

cut the melon into half .....  deseed as much as you can .

with a knife just make  incisions and criss cross cuts and scoop out the pulp into a large vessel. 
Press the remaining white of the thick skin and you will be surprised at how much water you can squeeze out from the Melon itself.


Add about  a glassfull of the Rose /Rasberry syrup ..... ( depends on how much sweetness you require) 

Mix the Melon , Syrup , water and crushed Ice well .  Mash the water Melon as much as u can leave the rest as cubes ......  
Serve into tall glasses  with Long handled spoons and enjoy.


Optional:

If there is excess liquid remaining after serving  do not throw it away .... just pour into Ice Cube trays and freeze..

Next time round when you make  Rose or Rasberry drinks just add  some of these cubes with a dash of lime and and Soda .
enjoy.


NB: If you want further use of the Water Melon ..... dont throw away  the halved and scooped out shell Just invert it over your head to beat the heat :)
