Step-by-Step Instructions:
Prepare the Watermelon: Start by cutting the watermelon into chunks and removing the rind. You only need the red flesh for this recipe.
Blend the Watermelon: Place the watermelon chunks in a blender and blend until smooth. You may need to do this in batches, depending on the size of your blender.
Strain the Juice: Pour the blended watermelon through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a large pot to remove the pulp. Press down on the pulp to extract as much juice as possible.
Cook the Juice: Bring the watermelon juice to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer. Stir occasionally and allow the juice to reduce and thicken. This process can take 2-3 hours, so be patient and keep an eye on it.
Check the Consistency: Once the juice has reduced to a thick, syrupy consistency, remove it from the heat. It should resemble honey in texture.
Cool and Store: Let the watermelon honey cool completely, then transfer it to a clean jar or bottle. Store it in the refrigerator, where it will keep for up to two weeks.
