Summer is watermelon season, which is the ideal time to experiment with watermelon cocktails. Cocktails including margaritas, martinis, and mojitos are available, as well as nonalcoholic lemonade and punch. Fresh watermelon is used in many drink recipes (perfect for picnic leftovers), and because the fruit is so watery, it quickly turns into a delicious juice. Watermelon mixes well with gin, rum, tequila, and vodka, and some watermelon drinks utilise watermelon liqueur instead. The vivid salmon-red colour and delicate vegetal-fruity flavour of watermelon provide visual appeal and freshness to a variety of cocktails. Whether you blitz it in a blender and strain the juice, make a syrup with it, muddle it, or simply spike it with a bottle of tequila, the fruit is sure to satisfy and rejuvenate you.
Here are some watermelon cocktails that are perfect to beat the heat-
Watermelon Margarita
The sweet taste of watermelon pairs well with the margarita. This watermelon margarita is a fantastic way to use up an overripe melon or store-bought pre-cut chunks. A muddler and the classic margarita ingredients of tequila, triple sec, and lime juice are required. Make a round or two, and your watermelon stock will be gone in no time.
