This watermelon vodka cocktail is so simple and easy to create and tastes so refreshing and crisp.

Making the watermelon juice is simple and takes just a couple steps. I began with a small watermelon around 6 pounds and I just juiced half of it! It yielded about 20 ounces of juice – much more than you need for this recipe, so more cocktails for us! Cut your watermelon into cubes and throw it in a blender, make sure you cut off all the rind. Blend for around 2 minutes or just until its fully liquified. Pour into a bowl through a sieve or cheesecloth to separate liquid from solid and discard the solids. Then you are left with delicious fresh watermelon juice.

This cocktail could be made and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days but its really best served fresh!
