Skinny Watermelon Limeade

Author:

Ingredients
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons Truvia
  • 3½ heaping cups diced seedless watermelon
  • 3 large limes, juiced
  • For Garnish:
  • Mint
  • Basil
  • Lime wedges

Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, bring the water and Truvia to a boil. Let boil for 5 minutes, then turn off heat, add simple syrup to a glass container, and place in the freezer to cool while you prepare the rest of the drink.
  2. Place the watermelon in a high-powered blender and completely puree. Place mixture in a strainer and push mixture through to remove all pulp.
  3. Place watermelon juice in a glass pitcher. Add the juice of three limes and the simple syrup (make sure it’s cooled). Stir.
  4. To serve, fill glasses with ice and limeade, and garnish with mint, basil, and lime wedges if desired.
  5. To keep, refrigerate in a closed container. Limeade is best within 48 hours of making.
