Watermelon Mint Mocktail

Watermelon Mint Mocktail

Nothing says summer like this refreshing watermelon mint mocktail! It’s light, crisp and made with only a few simple ingredients.

Ingredients:

  • 2 fresh mint leaves, plus more for garnish
  • Ice
  • 3/4 cup watermelon juice (see Tip)
  • ½ cup club soda
  • Small slice watermelon for garnish

Instructions:

Mash mint leaves in the bottom of a large cocktail glass or pint glass with a muddler or small wooden spoon. Fill the glass one-third full of ice; add watermelon juice. Top with club soda and garnish with a watermelon slice and more mint leaves, if desired.

 

Tips:

To make your own watermelon juice, puree 1 1/2 cups cubed seedless watermelon in a blender until smooth. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing with a spoon to release juices. Discard solids. Cover and refrigerate the juice for up to 4 days.
