  2. Next, place a fine mesh strainer over a large bowl and pour the watermelon puree through it to leave the pulp behind.
  3. In a large pitcher, whisk together cold water, freshly strained lemon juice, and granulated sugar until the sugar dissolves completely.
  4. Slowly stir in the pureed watermelon juice into the pitcher with your lemonade base.
