How to Make Watermelon Flavored Syrup For Soft Drinks
- Chop 4 cups of seedless watermelon into chunks.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped watermelon, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Blend until completely smooth and pureed. This may take a few minutes, depending on your blender.
- Line a fine-mesh sieve with cheesecloth or a coffee filter placed over a bowl. Pour the watermelon mixture into the sieve and let it strain for about 5-10 minutes to remove any pulp or seeds.
- Once strained, pour the syrup into a clean jar or pitcher.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The syrup will thicken slightly as it chills.
- To serve, mix 1-2 tablespoons of watermelon syrup with 6-8 ounces of chilled club soda or sparkling water. Adjust the amount of syrup to your taste preference. Garnish with fresh mint or watermelon wedges for an extra touch.
