After pureeing the watermelon, pour it into a big dish or pitcher using a cheesecloth or fine-mesh strainer. The pulp and juice may then be separated in this way. To get the most juice out of the pulp, push down on it with a spoon.
4. Reduce heat and simmer the juice:
Heat the watermelon juice through and then pour it into a big pot. Bring to a boil. Mash the fruit and cook the liquid until it boils.
Turn the heat down to low and simmer when it boils. While stirring periodically, let the juice boil for about two to three hours. Simmering causes the juice to evaporate and thicken into a syrup.
Refrigerate and Keep: 5.
Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature once juice has thickened to a consistency similar to honey.
To preserve, transfer the honey from the watermelon to a sterile container when it has cooled. It has a shelf life of up to 30 days in the fridge.
The Best Ways to Use Watermelon Honey: For a healthier alternative to sugar, try watermelon honey in your morning tea, smoothie, or lemonade.
For a tangy flavor, drizzle it over yogurt, pancakes, or waffles.
To enhance the sweetness and fruitiness of chicken or pork, try using it as a glaze or marinade.
