Preparation

Step 1

Working in batches, purée watermelon in a blender until smooth. Pour into a large bowl and let stand for 10 minutes. Skim foam from surface and discard.

Set a fine-mesh sieve over a large pitcher; line sieve with cheesecloth. Strain purée into pitcher (you should have almost 7 cups juice). Stir in grapefruit juice.

Fill glasses with ice. Divide agua fresca among glasses.
