The pink drink that packs a punch!

What do you serve on Valentine's Day at a serial entrepreneur's book launch? Clearly something that's inspired by romance, but doesn't tip-toe around the edges! Enter the Watermelon Martini - the sweet melon and stiff vodka work perfectly together to create this refreshingly dangerous drink. Great as a welcome party-starter, or soften it up with some homemade lemonade and serve as a punch.


Watermelon Martini

Ingredients (for one drink)

2 Parts vodka
1 Part Sugar Syrup
5 Pieces watermelon

Method

Muddle melon in a shaker. Add vodka and sugar syrup. Fill with ice cubes. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass.

We serve ours in a fancy champagne saucer for added romance.
