Ingredients

• 4 cups (diced) Seedless watermelon
• 2 bottles (12 oz each) Lager beer or light beer
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Honey (optional)
• 1 cup Ice cubes
• 4 slices Lime slices
• 8 leaves Mint leaves (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

1. Prepare the watermelon by removing the rind and cutting the flesh into small cubes, making sure to use a seedless variety.

Step 2

2. Add 4 cups of diced watermelon to a blender, and blend until smooth. If desired, strain the watermelon juice through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp. This step is optional depending on your texture preference.

Step 3

3. In a large pitcher, combine the watermelon juice with the fresh lime juice and, if you prefer a sweeter drink, add 1 tablespoon of honey. Stir until the honey is completely dissolved.

Step 4

4. Slowly pour the beer into the pitcher, stirring gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix to prevent excessive foam.

Step 5

5. Add ice cubes to individual serving glasses, and pour the watermelon beer mixture over the ice.

Step 6

6. Garnish each glass with a lime slice and a mint leaf for a refreshing touch.

Step 7

7. Serve immediately and enjoy this crisp, fruity beverage!
