Watermelon cooler recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 watermelon, half chopped, half cut into bite-sized chunks, to serve
  • juice of 2 limes
  • 100g white caster sugar
  • up to 3 gelatine leaves
  • chopped fresh mint, to serve
  • honey to drizzle

Method

  • Blitz together the watermelon with the juice of the limes and caster sugar until completely juiced. Push the juice through a sieve into a measuring jug. Measure the amount of juice you have and soak as many leaves of gelatine as you need, using the ratio of 1 leaf of gelatine per 200ml. Dissolve the soaked gelatine in a little hot water from the kettle and add to the watermelon juice. Pour the juice into small moulds and leave to set overnight. Unmould the jellies and serve alongside bite-sized chunks of watermelon scattered with chopped mint and drizzled with honey.
