Florida Watermelon Juice

Chef Adriana Martin
Watermelon is a summer staple; we eat it as is, in desserts, in salads, on ice pops, fruit drinks, and even margaritas! But did you know you can make watermelon juice? It is so simple and doesn't require much. The trick is to choose a sweet watermelon, and that has ripened naturally in the soil — no need to add water nor sugar.
