They are rich in zinc, magnesium, iron, and protein, all of which are beneficial for male reproductive health. Here’s a simple recipe to make a refreshing and nutritious watermelon seed drink:
1/4 cup watermelon seeds (raw and unsalted)
4 cups water
1 cup diced watermelon flesh (optional for added flavour)
1-2 tablespoons honey or natural sweetener (optional)
Juice of 1 lemon or lime (optional)
Mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Prepare the watermelon seeds:
Rinse the watermelon seeds thoroughly under running water.
Spread the seeds on a baking sheet and let them dry completely. You can dry them naturally or use an oven at a low temperature (about 120°F or 50°C) to speed up the process.
Blend the seeds:
Once the seeds are dry, place them in a blender.
Add 2 cups of water to the blender.
Blend the seeds and water on high speed for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture is smooth.
Strain the mixture:
Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a large bowl or pitcher to remove the solid seed particles.
Press down on the solids with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.
Combine with additional ingredients:
If you are using diced watermelon flesh, add it to the strained mixture.
Blend again until smooth.
Strain the mixture once more if desired for a smoother texture.
Add honey or your preferred natural sweetener to taste.
Squeeze in the juice of one lemon or lime for a zesty flavour.
Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
Chill and serve:
Refrigerate the drink for at least 1 hour to chill.
Serve the drink cold, garnished with fresh mint leaves if desired.
