# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The balance of sweet watermelon and tart lime creates a drink that tastes like summer in a glass
  • Nobody feels left out when the mocktail looks just as gorgeous as its alcoholic counterpart
02 -
  • Straining is worth the extra 30 seconds if you want that smooth bar quality texture instead of a chunky smoothie situation
  • Room temperature ingredients will dilute faster with ice, so chill your watermelon ahead if you have time

  • Freeze watermelon cubes in advance and use them instead of ice to prevent your drink from watering down
  • A handful of fresh mint blended into the base takes this from great to absolutely stunning
