Watermelon Lemonade Cocktail
Introduction from Sarah Gualtieri
Although you can usually find watermelon year round, it’s just never as good as when it’s in season. Adding watermelon to the most classic summer drink – lemonade – is sure to be a hit at any summer party. You could even make this without the alcohol and give your guests the option to add it. Either way, it’s an incredibly refreshing and flavourful drink.
Ingredients
Method
In a large pitcher, stir the lemon juice and sugar with the warm water until the sugar dissolves. Top up with cold water. Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
Once cold, add the tequila and watermelon juice and stir to combine. Refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
Before serving, add the lemon and lime slices.
Pour into glasses with ice and top each with club soda. Garnish with watermelon slices.
