What each ingredient does
- Watermelon
- Provides nearly all the liquid and natural sweetness, so the juice is mostly its flesh.
The step that matters
Pressing through a fine sieve. Sieving removes seeds and pulp that would otherwise leave the juice gritty and cloudy. Working in batches keeps the processor from overfilling, which helps the flesh blend evenly into a smooth liquid.
