Fresh Watermelon with Cool Citrus Mascarpone

1 med. watermelon
1 cup mascarpone cheese
1 orange, zested, segmented, juices set aside
2 lemons, zested, segmented, juices set aside
1 grapefruit, zested, segmented, juices set aside
2 tbsp. sugar

Directions:

Cut watermelon in half lengthwise. Using a melon baller, cut into balls and place in a shallow serving bowl. In a blender, mix the mascarpone and the citrus fruit juices and the sugar until smooth. If too thick, thin with a little water (it should be as thick as yogurt). Drizzle the mascarpone over the watermelon balls and sprinkle the fruit segments over and serve cool.

User Reviews:

I was interested in making this recipe, but I don't understand it. What does it mean to zest and segment the citrus fruits? I know how to zest the fruit but what does it mean to segment it? I also have to juice it right? What will be left of the fruit after you juice it? I am I supposed to save the pulp from the juiced fruit and sprinkle it on top? I am a bit confused.
