Celebrate the end of summer with this delightful cocktail. Combine one part vodka (or citrus vodka) to 1-1/2 parts puréed watermelon. Shake the ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a sprig of mint. You also can keep watermelon cubes in the freezer to purée or mix in a blender for a frozen-style drink. If you don’t have fresh watermelon, try a variation with 1 part vodka and 1/2 part DeKuyper Pucker Watermelon Schnapps—handy during the months when there’s no fresh watermelon to be had. When there is, you can use this recipe and add some crushed fresh watermelon.
