I made another tasty watermelon drink with some of the same ingredients I used for the white wine spritzer the other day, but this time, no wine.
I put a few watermelon ice cubes in a glass and sprinkled on a few mint leaves that I had just bruised, by squishing them in my fingers to release some oils and flavor. Over that I poured about an eighth of a cup of still-warm simple syrup, to start melting the watermelon juice from the cubes and to release more mint flavor. Then I just filled the glass with club soda.
It was almost like a watermelon mint julep, without the alcohol, of course. Actually super tasty. I'm having fun with this watermelon ice cube thing!
Happy eating!
