Greek Watermelon Refresher
5 steps
Prep:5min
*This recipe is fully scaleable from 1 to as many people as one watermelon can serve.
Watermelon is one of the most beloved melons of summer (and the Yumi variety is unlike any other with its black skin, vibrant red center, and bold rich flavor.) It’s perfect in salads, drinks, or just sliced and served as a standalone picnic option. Now it’s time to try watermelon as you’ve never tasted it before! This Greek Watermelon Refresher has a truly unique flavor profile–the sweet crispness of the ripe and juicy watermelon is supported by tangy greek yogurt, savory notes from pistachios, while brightened with the herbaceous zest of basil, and balanced by the sweetness of wildflower honey. This is the summer refresher you’ve been long awaiting. Try this dish at your next afternoon gathering–and save this recipe, because your family and friends will definitely ask you for it!
Also, save the rind! Its high in nutrients and can be used in everything from stir-fry to candy. More on that another time.
