Instructions
- Drop the mint leaves and lime juice into the bottom of your glass.

- Pour in the watermelon juice and coconut water.
- Add enough ice cubes so the glass is about halfway full.

Notes
Chill the watermelon juice before mixing so the ice won’t melt too fast.
Use honey for a sweeter drink or agave for a lighter taste—both dissolve easily.
Always use fresh mint; add extra for a bigger mint kick.
Scale up for a pitcher, but add sparkling water just before serving.
Pairs well with salty snacks or fresh fruit for a light summer party.
