Ingredients
Instructions
1. Prepare the watermelon: Start by cutting your seedless watermelon into manageable cubes. Aim for pieces that are small enough to fit comfortably into the chute of your juicer.
2. Prepare the beet: Peel the medium beet using a vegetable peeler. Once peeled, quarter it so it can easily pass through the juicer. Beets can stain, so you might want to wear gloves or wash your hands immediately after handling.
3. Juice the ingredients: Feed the watermelon cubes and beet quarters through your juicer. Alternate between the watermelon and beet to help the juicer process everything smoothly and to ensure a good mix of flavors.
4. Add the lime juice: Once all the watermelon and beet have been juiced, pour the fresh lime juice into the collected juice. The lime adds a crucial bright, tangy counterpoint to the sweetness.
5. Adjust consistency (optional): If the juice is too thick for your liking, you can stir in 1/2 cup of cold water, or more, until you reach your desired consistency. Taste and adjust as needed.
6. Serve immediately: Pour the freshly made juice over ice cubes in individual glasses. Enjoy it right away for the best flavor and nutritional benefits.
