Watermelon Limeade Vodka Cooler image

this is a good one

Provided by Patsy Fowler

Categories     Cocktails

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/4 large watermelon cut into cubes
juice from 2 limes
4 oz vodka
ice
lime slices for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. In a blender combine the watermelon cubes, lime juice and vodka. Puree until smooth.
  • 2. Fill 2 collins glasses with ice and pour the watermelon cooler over top. Garnish with lime slices

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, juicy watermelon: The best watermelon coolers are made with ripe, juicy watermelon. Look for a watermelon that is heavy for its size and has a deep red color. Avoid watermelons that have any soft spots or bruises.
  • Chill the watermelon before using: Chilling the watermelon before using will help to make the cooler even more refreshing. You can chill the watermelon in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight.
  • Add other fruits and flavors: You can add other fruits and flavors to your watermelon cooler to make it even more delicious. Some popular additions include strawberries, blueberries, mint, and lime.
  • Make it a mocktail or cocktail: Watermelon coolers can be made as mocktails or cocktails. To make a mocktail, simply omit the alcohol. To make a cocktail, add your favorite spirit, such as vodka, gin, or rum.
  • Serve immediately: Watermelon coolers are best served immediately after they are made. The ice will melt and dilute the flavor of the cooler if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Watermelon coolers are a delicious and refreshing way to cool down on a hot day. They are also a great way to use up leftover watermelon. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a watermelon cooler that everyone will love. So next time you have a watermelon, be sure to give this recipe a try!
