• Garnish with mint, and watermelon hearts, and or rim your glass with salt to balance the sweet taste.
• Add club soda to add a bubbly element.
• Freeze your cocktail in a popsicle mold to create an alcoholic ice pop.

What To Pair With The Watermelon Cocktails

Take your hollowed-out watermelon and fill it with other fruits such as berries or melon.

Snacks

Guacamole and chips are a great pairing. We recommend using tortilla chips with a lime flavor to enhance the flavors of both the guac and cocktail.

Cheese

Feta or Goat cheese pairs well with the sweet taste of the cocktail.
