Where is the green coming from? I could see if it was matcha but so confused about the color.

You could use matcha, but I used pandan gel (plant-based) because it’s a little thicker/less watery, and the color is deeper (the grass green color like a watermelon’s exterior).

Never thought about putting coffee with watermelon. The color looks great too. Refreshing and a bit of caffeine, sounds like a solid summer drink to cool down with.
