Sparkling Watermelon Lemonade

August 19, 2021 · Last Modified: June 2, 2022

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This Sparking Watermelon Lemonade is an incredibly satisfying and refreshing summer drink! The added sparkling water gives this drink a cocktail feel but without the alcohol. It’s the perfect drink to end the night but is also refreshing enough to drink outside by a pool or in the park on a hot day. Wherever you end up taking your glass of Sparkling Watermelon Lemonade, I hope you enjoy!

This drink comes together fast and easy. Simply juice lemons until you have 1 cup of fresh juice. Mix the lemon juice with the sugar of your choice and set aside. Cube 4 1/2 cups of watermelon and add to a blender. Blend until smooth and then you’ll want to strain it in to a pitcher. Mix the watermelon juice with the sweetened lemon juice and mix well. Pour 3/4 of the watermelon lemonade in to a glass with ice and top off with sparkling water. If you’re feeling extra fancy and going for that cocktail feel, add a cane sugar and fresh thyme rim!

How To Make The Best Sparkling Watermelon Lemonade

This drink isn’t very sweet as is but if you typically enjoy drinks that are not too sweet, start with 1/4 cup instead of 1/3 cup. You can always add a touch more sweetness to the finished glass if it’s not sweet enough.
