Watermelon Mint Fizz

I love watermelon, but find that it’s often too much fruit to consume in a sitting or
two. If you squeeze out the juice from some fresh watermelon, and mix with lime
juice, mint, vodka, and ginger beer, you end up with a delicious & refreshing
beverage.
This following recipe makes 1 cocktail.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz vodka
  • 2 oz watermelon juice
  • 4 fresh mint leaves
  • ½ oz fresh lime juice
  • 2 oz ginger beer

Instructions 

  • Muddle the mint in the bottle of a shaker tin with some ice.
  • Add the vodka, watermelon juice, and lime juice, and shake for ten seconds.
  • Strain into a tall chilled glass with ice, and top with ginger beer.
  • Serve cold.

Notes

You can make this without the ginger beer and without the lime, if you prefer a
stronger cocktail with more watermelon and mint flavor.
