You Got This!
The watermelon martini tastes like summer! It can also be made with Rum if you prefer, but not quit as good.
Ingredients
½ cup chopped watermelon (or ¼ cup watermelon juice)
2 large mint leaves
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) vodka
½ ounce (1 tablespoon) Cointreau
½ ounce (1 tablespoon) lime juice
1 teaspoon simple syrup
For the garnish: small watermelon wedge
Preparation
Chop up the watermelon.
Add the melon and mint to a cocktail shaker.
Muddle (gently mash) them with a cocktail muddler or wooden spoon to release the juices. (If you’re using watermelon juice, simply muddle the mint first.)
Add vodka, Cointreau, lime juice and simple syrup. Fill with ice and shake until cold.
Strain the drink into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a small watermelon wedge, if desired.
