Ingredients

• 4 cups (diced) Seedless watermelon
• 2 cups (crushed or finely grated) Ripe pineapple
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 2 cups Coconut water
• 2 tablespoons Sweetened condensed milk
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 2 cups Ice cubes

Directions

Step 1

1. Start by preparing the watermelon: dice it into small cubes and lightly mash it with a fork in a large mixing bowl. You want some texture, so avoid pureeing it completely.

Step 2

2. Add the crushed or finely grated pineapple to the bowl with the mashed watermelon. Mix gently to combine.

Step 3

3. Pour in the coconut milk and coconut water, stirring well to incorporate the liquids with the fruit mixture.

Step 4

4. Add the sweetened condensed milk and lime juice to the bowl. Stir until the condensed milk is fully blended, adjusting the sweetness and tartness to your taste if desired.

Step 5

5. Transfer the mixture to a large pitcher, and add the ice cubes directly to the drink to keep it chilled.

Step 6

6. Serve immediately in glasses, making sure each glass has a balanced mix of fruit and liquid. Optionally garnish with a slice of lime or a sprig of mint for presentation.
