Instructions

Description: The Minted Melon Breeze is a refreshing cocktail perfect for sipping on those sizzling summer days. It takes inspiration from the classic mojito and Brazil's renowned caipirinha, infusing it with a juicy twist of melon to offer a delightful and invigorating drink experience. This cocktail not only quenches your thirst but also tantalizes your palate with a harmonious blend of fresh mint, subtle sweetness, and a bright melon flavor that pairs beautifully with its spirited base. Ingredients: - 2 oz White Rum - 1 oz Melon Liqueur (such as Midori) - 6-8 Fresh Mint Leaves - 2 oz Fresh Watermelon Puree (strained to remove solids) - 1/2 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 1/2 oz Simple Syrup (adjust to taste) - Soda Water - Crushed Ice - Mint Sprig and Watermelon Slice, for garnish Instructions: 1. In a highball glass, gently muddle the mint leaves with lime juice and simple syrup to release the mint's essential oils. 2. Add the watermelon puree to the glass and fill it halfway with crushed ice. 3. Pour in the white rum and melon liqueur. 4. Stir the mixture until well combined. 5. Fill the glass to the top with more crushed ice and top off with soda water. 6. Give it a gentle stir to integrate the soda and lift the mint leaves through the drink. 7. Garnish with a mint sprig and a slice of watermelon on the rim of the glass. 8. Serve immediately with a straw, and enjoy the Minted Melon Breeze on a hot and sunny day. The highball glass allows for an appealing layered effect when the soda is added, and the garnishes make it an Instagram-worthy summertime treat.
