Preparation

Step 1

For watermelon puree: Seed melon cubes, if necessary. Put cubes in a blender and process until smooth. Pour puree through a strainer, pushing gently. Discard pulp. The remaining puree will be very thin, almost like juice; set aside in refrigerator.

For gazpacho: To 4 cups of puree, add the lemon juice, vinegar, mint, onion, berries, salt, pepper and cayenne (if using) and mix well. Chill for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve in chilled bowls.
