Recipe: Watermelon Splash

A simple, refreshing mason jar cocktail that’s perfect for sipping by the pool or in the garden on a hot summer afternoon. One of the most enjoyable things about this cocktail is the smell of the rosemary as you drink it. It is literally sensational!

Ingredients

• 60ml vodka
• 1.5 cups watermelon, cubed (seedless or seeds removed)
• 5 slices of cucumber
• 1 sprig of rosemary
• Ice cubes
• Extra watermelon cubes, cucumber slices, ice and sprig of rosemary to garnish.

Method

Add 1 cup of watermelon and a sprig of rosemary to a tall mason jar and muddle. Add the vodka, cucumber slices, remaining ½ cup watermelon and ice to the jar so it’s approximately ¾ full. Seal lid tightly and give it a shake. Remove lid. Top with extra ice, watermelon cubes and a sprig of rosemary to garnish. Fill with soda water to rim. Serve with a drinking straw and cocktail stirrer.

Cheers!
