Watermelon lemonade cocktail

 I was craving for some serious watermelon today so I though to myself; why not a cocktail with some lemonade.

“Watermelon and lemonade “. What a great combo. Add some lime for that kick !

Cut Watermelon cubes and freeze overnight


I wondered if, when sliced, watermelon would form into delicious little ice cubes. It turns out, it does.
All hail the frozen cocktail!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole watermelon Cut to small seedless sizes
  • 2 whole  medium lime
  • 2 shots  Rum barcadi can use any rum of your choice
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 litre lemonade 

Instructions
 

  • Slice 3/4 of a seedless watermelon into cubes, reserving one quarter for juice, and place in a bag and freeze for several hours or preferably overnight.
  • Slice limes into quarters and squeeze the juice of one fruit into each serving glass, throwing the limes into the glass along with it. (Only use half of a lime instead of 2 medium limes if you prefer a drink that’s not as tart.)
  • Add 1 tbsp sugar and one shot (2 Tbsp // 30 ml) of white rum to each serving glass and muddle until well mixed.
  • Fill to the brim with watermelon ice cubes, add a healthy splash of watermelon juice (about 1/4 cup), and top off with lemonade
  • Stir, garnish with lime wedge, and serve with a straw.

Notes

Only add half of a lime if you prefer a less sour drink.
*If your watermelon isn’t frozen, just add in a few actual ice cubes to chill the drink.
*You’ll have enough watermelon ice cubes for at least four drinks.
*Omit the sugar if you prefer a more sour cocktail as lemonade already has sugar 
*I highly recommend eating the boozy watermelon cubes as they melt – so tasty!
* please omit sugar for any health reason you might have. Follow your own guidelines as drink can still be enjoyed without sugar.
