Place cubed watermelon in blender.
Blend at medium speed, increasing speed slowly until watermelon is completely smooth. If desired, add water and blend again to achieve thinner consistency.
Serve immediately over ice or refrigerate until chilled. Note: if you'd prefer a no-pulp juice, you can strain the liquid through a sieve before serving.

I personally prefer the watermelon juice without extra water added, but you can add water--as much or as little--as you like!
If you have any leftover watermelon juice, refrigerate it in an airtight container up to 2 days max.

Thin your watermelon juice with sparkling water instead of flat.
Blend in vodka or rum (plain or flavored).
Add peeled, diced cucumber and a little lime juice. You’ll probably want to strain this one.
Blend fresh mint leaves or a dash of mint extract with the watermelon chunks.
Cut the watermelon into chunks, then line the chunks on a sheet pan. Set the pan in the freezer until the watermelon’s frozen, then blend the frozen cubes until you’ve got a watermelon daiquiri consistency.
