Watermelon Lime Mocktail

This gut-healthy mocktail is the perfect sipper, featuring refreshing watermelon and probiotic kombucha to support healthy digestion. It has a subtle kick of spice, thanks to the jalapeño—but if you want to tame the heat, you can leave it out.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cubed seeded watermelon, plus watermelon slices for garnish
  • ½ cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves, plus more for garnish
  • ¼ cup lime juice (from 2 limes)
  • 1 tablespoon seeded and coarsely chopped jalapeño pepper
  • ice cubes
  • 1 cup watermelon kombucha

Directions

  1. Place 2 cups cubed watermelon, ½ cup basil, ¼ cup lime juice and 1 tablespoon jalapeño in a large cocktail shaker. Muddle until no large chunks of watermelon remain and the basil is fragrant, about 1 minute. Half-fill the shaker with ice; shake vigorously until chilled, about 20 seconds. Strain into 2 chilled coupe glasses
  2. Top each glass with 1/2 cup kombucha; stir gently. Garnish with basil and a watermelon slice, if desired.
