Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Prepare the glasses: In a small bowl, combine salt and sugar. Moisten the rims of two martini glasses with a wedge of watermelon. Dip the moistened rims into the salt-sugar mixture, ensuring an even coating. (5 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

Combine ingredients: In a cocktail shaker, combine the chilled watermelon juice, vodka, watermelon schnapps, simple syrup, and fresh lime juice. (2 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Chill and shake: Add ice to the cocktail shaker until it's about two-thirds full. Seal the shaker tightly and shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker is thoroughly frosted and chilled (about 15-20 seconds). (3 minutes)

04

Step
1 mins

Strain and serve: Strain the mixture into the prepared martini glasses, ensuring no ice chips enter the drink. (2 minutes)

05

Step
0 mins

Garnish (optional): Garnish with a small watermelon wedge or a lime twist for an elegant touch. (1 minute)

For the freshest flavor, use freshly squeezed watermelon juice. Strain the juice through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp.
Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less simple syrup.
Chill your martini glasses in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before serving for an extra frosty experience.
For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the vodka and schnapps with sparkling water or club soda.

    I didn't have watermelon schnapps, so I used a little cranberry juice instead and it worked great!
