Most people don’t like to complicate things when it comes to watermelons. They are sweet, juicy, and refreshing, so why mess with an already great recipe? But as it turns out, those people have been missing out.

Watermelon can become even more exciting if you add some seasoning to it. It will completely change your watermelon-eating experience. Feel free to experiment, but make sure to check out these ideas first.

Watermelon with Honey

You can probably guess why this combo works. The sweetness of the watermelon gets dialed up to 11 thanks to honey, and you’ll feel guilty about how good it is.

Watermelon with Lemon

Simply take half of a lemon and squeeze it all over your watermelon slices. Lemon juice will provide the watermelon with a citrusy kick that will add a refreshing note to its sweetness.

Watermelon with Sea Salt

We know that watermelon and sea salt sounds like a weird combo, but hear us out. You know how salt can make chocolate better? Well, it also works in the same way with watermelon. It makes the sweetness more prominent, enhances the flavor, and removes the bitterness that slightly unripe watermelons have.

Watermelon with Chili Powder

How about sweet and spicy? Cut the watermelon meat into cubes and generously sprinkle chili powder on top. Give it a good toss, and be amazed by the results.
