Method

Preparation

1

Make Watermelon Purée

In a blender, add the cubed fresh watermelon. Blend on high speed until smooth. If desired, strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove pulp for a smoother purée.

2

Prepare Simple Syrup

If you don't have simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves completely. Let it cool before using.

Mixing

3

Combine Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add 2 oz of Stoli® Cucumber™ Vodka, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, 1 oz of watermelon purée, and 1 oz of simple syrup.

4

Shake

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

5

Strain

Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass, ensuring that no ice enters the glass.

Garnishing

6

Garnish

Place a cucumber slice on the rim of the martini glass for garnish.
