ʻOtai is a traditional drink from Tonga that is loved by many people across the Pacific Islands.
It is a refreshing and sweet drink that people often enjoy on hot days or during special events.
ʻOtai is usually made using fresh watermelon, coconut milk, water, and sugar.
The watermelon is grated or mashed so that small pieces of fruit are mixed throughout the drink.
This gives ʻotai its unique texture and a natural fruity flavour.
