Skinny Watermelon Mojito Recipe

Is there something synonymous about Summer and watermelons? We eat a lot of them! The other day I decided to make one into a skinny watermelon mojito…which is very similar to a regular watermelon mojito just without the added sugar. The fruit by itself adds enough sweetness without pouring on more sugar.

These mojitos came out rather delicious, if I do say so myself. This drink recipe makes a light, airy, and very refreshing beverage! The flavors are not overwhelming, and the added hint of mint is pretty much perfect.

Ready to make a batch of these mojitos for yourself?! Ok, great! Here’s what you’ll need to get your drink going:

Skinny Watermelon Mojito Recipe

INGREDIENTS

– 1 cup watermelon

– 1 cup club soda

– 1 ounce rum

– 1/3 cup lime juice

– approximately 6 mint leaves

DIRECTIONS

1. Blend your watermelon to a smooth consistency. If your watermelon was not previously chilled, you may want to add 1/4 cup of ice into the blender, as well, to make it nice and cold!!

You can also do what we did and cut a hole in the top of your watermelon and stick a mixer right inside of it and blend! Such a super cool way to blend without having to make a mess by cutting chunks of watermelon and getting sticky watermelon juice all over the place! See how we did it here:

2. Meanwhile, muddle 3 or 4 mint leaves in a separate bowl. If you want to get fancy, you can mush it up with a mortar and pestle.
Reserve additional mint leaves for garnish.

3. When the watermelon is down blending, add in the club soda, rum, lime juice, and mint.
