    watermelon mint cocktail

    It comes together super easily with my watermelon simple syrup recipe or you can use a store bought watermelon syrup such as monin. It can also be made by muddling some fresh watermelon cubes similar to my mezcal watermelon mojito recipe. 

    Just muddle some fresh mint leaves with lemon, add some vodka and watermelon syrup and stir with sparkling water. It's a perfect refreshing watermelon vodka cocktail. 

    Key Ingredients

    • Watermelon simple syrup My homemade watermelon simple syrup goes perfectly with this cocktail. It adds that refreshing, sweet flavor. 
    • Mint Mint goes great in many summer drinks. You can enhance it's flavor by either muddling it or giving it quick clap in between your hands to release the oils. 
    • Lemon to balance out the sweetness!
    • Club Soda for that bubbly goodness! 
    • Vodka Vodka goes great with sweet cocktails like this.
