Watermelon Martinis

Summer Party Ideas


Recipe Introduction


Makes 6 large martinis


List of Ingredients




4 cups of watermelon (with the rinds, seeds removed)
1 cup lemon vodka
1/2 cup cointreau or triple sec
2 limes, squeezed
1 cup of ice cubes
1 tablespoon sugar (or sugar substitute)
Garnish; pieces of watermelon, lime, sugar cane

Recipe



In a blender, combine the watermelon chunks and puree. Remove pureed fruit and pour into a pitcher and keep very cold, even a little frozen to make it icy.

For two generous martinis, add one cup of watermelon puree, 1/4 cup of lemon vodka, and one tablespoon of cointreau or triple sec to the blender with three ice cubes and blend. Pour into a nice festive glass, garnish with watermelon chunks, limes and a stick of sugar cane.

For those that do not want alcohol, just omit it, and add ice cubes, a splash of cranberry juice, and a splash of lime juice. Don't forget the festive party garnish!
