Selecting the right watermelon requires a little practice. Usually a ripe watermelon is heavy for its size and when you hit it with your knuckles it makes a hollow sound. If you are not sure what to do, ask a shop assistant until you are an expert yourself. Using forest or wild bush honey with a strong flavor can turn this juice into a taste sensation!
