Stage 1 – Blend Non-Watermelon Ingredients

1. In a blender, combine your mango, shredded coconut, coconut milk, honey and lime juice
2. Blend together until they are all well combined and you have a nice orangey liquid formed. Don’t worry if it’s a bit too thick, since it will mix with water from the watermelon

Stage 2 – Mash the Watermelon

1. Place your watermelon in a large bowl. The larger the bowl, the better… just in case things might get a little messy
2. With either a masher (like you would for mashed potatoes) or a fork, mash your watermelon down into smaller pieces. You’ll want to keep some of the watermelon pieces intact, but otherwise mash the rest to free liquid

Stage 3 – Finish Your ‘Otai

1. To make your watermelon drink complete, combine your mango/coconut milk puree with your mashed watermelon in your large bowl. Mix around thoroughly until all ingredients are well merged together
2. Transfer your ‘otai to a cup or a pitcher, and enjoy!
