Refreshing Watermelon Cocktail - A Fabulous Fete

Is there anything more refreshing than watermelon in the summer?

Honestly, I hated watermelon until a few years ago. And only recently started eating it on its own (like not as part of a recipe with other ingredients). And since the temps have started to rise, it’s been a staple in our house for afternoon snacks.

Naturally, the next step was to make something even better out of it… a cocktail. This one is perfect on a summer afternoon + it’s not too sweet which is one of my top requirements for cocktails. A must try for any upcoming bbq or happy hour!
