Looking for a delicious and refreshing cocktail to enjoy during the hot summer months? Look no further than the Liquid Watermelon! This cocktail is bursting with the flavors of fresh watermelon, making it the perfect drink to cool down on a sunny day.
To make this delightful concoction, start by gathering all the necessary ingredients. You'll need some fresh watermelon, vodka, lime juice, simple syrup, and ice. Once you have everything ready, it's time to mix up your drink!
Begin by cutting the watermelon into small chunks and removing any seeds. Place the chunks into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Next, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any remaining pulp.
In a shaker, combine 2 ounces of the watermelon juice, 1 1/2 ounces of vodka, 1 ounce of lime juice, and 1/2 ounce of simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.
Strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice cubes and garnish with a slice of fresh watermelon or a lime wedge. Feel free to get creative with the garnish to make your drink even more visually appealing!
The Liquid Watermelon is a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess, with the refreshing flavor of watermelon shining through. It's great for sipping by the pool or enjoying at a backyard barbecue.
