Nothing pairs with sunshine quite like fresh watermelon, so today I wanted to whip up a delicious and refreshing watermelon cocktail to serve as a compliment to my Spring party and party menu! What I love about the cocktail is the natural sweetness which comes from the watermelon itself, and the hint of lime which comes from the fresh lime juice. Also a fab mocktail, it’s quite the crowd pleaser so I recommend making a pitcher worth to place on a bar cart. One note if you plan to serve outside, I recommend placing ice separate {ie. in an ice bucket} as not to water down the sweetness! Enjoy!

Watermelon Cooler Cocktail:

{Inspired by the cocktail I found on the website Toriavey.com, Below quantity is enough for one pitcher; approximately 4 drinks}

• 6 cups cubed seedless watermelon, well chilled
• 3 fresh limes, juiced
• 3/4 cup rum (optional for mocktail)
• Optional – if you like it a bit sweeter, add Sugar (or your favorite sweetener) to taste
• Fresh watermelon cubes, mint sprigs, and bamboo toothpicks for garnish

Place in a blender, blend until liquid, serve over ice.
