Notes

Tips and Tricks
  • If you prefer a sweeter martini, consider adding a splash of simple syrup to the shaker before mixing.
  • For an extra refreshing experience, chill your martini glasses in the freezer for a few minutes before rimming and serving.
  • Use ripe and juicy watermelon for the best flavor. Seedless varieties work best to avoid seeds in your drink.
  • Skewered watermelon cubes make for a fun and colorful garnish, adding a touch of visual appeal.
