Watermelon Agua Fresca

A great way to get your lycopene and to use that watermelon that has been in the fridge too long.  You know that funky texture, yuck.

8 cups chopped seedless watermelon (about 3 1/4 pounds)
1 cup fresh lime juice (about 6 limes)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
Dash of salt

Place half of watermelon in a blender; process until smooth. Strain watermelon through a sieve into a pitcher; discard solids. Repeat procedure with the remaining watermelon. Stir in lime juice, sugar, 1/2 cup water, and dash of salt. Serve over ice.
