I used my juicer for the watermelon and a bullet-type blender for the strawberries and ginger. I thought that straining out the strawberry seeds was kind of unnecessary but I'm really glad that I did. It's smooth, fresh and not too sweet. I left this juice in the fridge for at least 2 hours before trying it. Made for ZWT8. Thanks Baby Kato! :)

Very refreshing drink. I used my juicer to extract the juices, then grated in some fresh ginger and let it sit in the refrigerator a while. I used Splenda, to taste, for the sweetener. This drink was nice because the ginger acted to sort of mellow the two juices and harmonize them. I will certainly make this again.
