3. Alternate method(this will prevent the drink from becoming too foamy,but it's a lot more work):place about 1 cup of the cubed watermelon in a sieve placed over a large bowl.Press the fruit through the sieve using a wooden spoon,until all of the juice is extracted.Repeat with remaining watermelon until you have used all of it,periodically throwing out the seeds as you go.Add all other ingredients.Serve immediately in a large pitcher.
