Brew black or green tea, let it cool, then stir in watermelon juice or blended watermelon and fresh mint. Serve over ice. Strain the watermelon first if you prefer a clearer drink, or leave the pulp in for a fruitier texture.
It contains caffeine when made with black or green tea. For a caffeine-free version, use rooibos or decaffeinated tea, or skip tea and combine watermelon, mint, and water instead.
Yes, watermelon mint iced tea can be made without added sugar. Ripe watermelon provides natural sweetness, and blending it into the tea gives a fuller fruit flavor than using only a small splash of juice.
Black tea gives watermelon mint iced tea a stronger, more familiar iced-tea flavor, while green tea keeps it lighter and grassy. Brew the tea moderately so its bitterness does not overpower the fruit and mint.
Yes, fresh watermelon works well in watermelon mint iced tea. Remove the seeds, then blend or mash the flesh; strain it for a smoother drink, or keep the pulp for a thicker, more fruit-forward result.
Watermelon mint iced tea is best refrigerated in a covered container and used within about two days. Fresh watermelon can lose its bright flavor as it sits, so stir the drink before serving and discard it if its smell or appearance changes.
Yes, green tea is a good base for watermelon mint iced tea and gives it a lighter taste than black tea. Cool the brewed tea before adding watermelon and mint to keep the drink crisp and refreshing.
Yes, watermelon mint iced tea contributes fluid because it is mostly water. If it contains caffeinated tea, it still counts toward fluid intake for most people; keep added sugar modest if you drink it often.
Yes, dried mint can stand in for fresh mint in watermelon mint iced tea. It is more concentrated and may leave small leaves in the drink, so use a light hand and strain before serving if you want a smooth texture.
Watermelon mint iced tea pairs well with summer salads, grilled vegetables, and lightly seasoned grilled foods. Its cool, fruity flavor also balances spicy dishes; serve it over ice with a lemon slice if you want a brighter finish.

Watermelon mint iced tea combines brewed tea with watermelon and fresh mint, served cold. It is a modern fruit-flavoured summer drink rather than a dish tied to one particular regional tradition; at home, you can make it with cooled tea and watermelon juice or lightly crushed fruit.
Its gentle tea flavour, juicy sweetness and minty finish make it refreshing over ice, either alongside a meal or as an afternoon drink. At 18 calories per 100 g, it can be a lighter choice than many sweetened soft drinks. Adjust the sweetness to taste—or leave out added sugar—and serve with extra mint or a squeeze of lemon.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
