WATERMELON JUICE RECIPE: HOW TO SHELL AND JUICE A WATERMELON
When Beyonce proclaimed “She’s been drankin’ watermelon”… I have to say, I was curious what watermelon juice would taste like! I immediately looked into how to make my own… I know, the power of super stars! LOL!
Anyways, I used to chop and cut to make the juice and throw it all in the blender. It was a bit time-consuming. Luckily, my business manager Nazim said “duh… just use an ice cream scoop, this works like a charm” And I totally recommend it! Check out my video below on how to do this and also how to use the shell as your very tropical looking drink cup! FUN!
