Watermelon Vodka Cocktail
by: claire cary
This fresh vodka watermelon cocktail is the perfect summer drink. Made with just a few simple ingredients like fresh watermelon and lime juice and ready in 5 minutes!
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh watermelon OR 1 cup watermelon juice
- 3 ounces vodka about 1/3-1/2 cup
- 1 tablespoon lime juice about 1/2 lime
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave
Instructions
- Add the cubed watermelon to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Strain through a fine mesh strainer 2-3 times or until completely pulp free and smooth. Alternatively, run through a nut milk bag.
- Add the watermelon juice (you should be left with 1 cup) to a cocktail shaker with the vodka, lime juice and sweetener if using. Shake with ice.
- Pour over ice and enjoy! Make it fizzy by topping with a splash of club soda.
Notes
You can use any sweetener you like or omit entirely since the watermelon adds natural sweetness on its own.
If you happen to have fresh mint lying around, it makes the perfect addition to this drink!
