Watermelon Cucumber Cooler

I’m sweating my face off! Thank you Austin for being gorgeous, but also for making it clear that I need to be poolside everyday to survive your beautiful (read: sweltering), sunny (read: burning), hot (read: omg we are all going to die), weather. Oh, and that I need to make cocktails everyday due to both heat and the fact that we are all going to die of said heat. And if that’s the case, I will stick to my plan that I shall go with a cocktail in hand…

I give you the Watermelon Cucumber Cooler!

It’s fantastically fresh!

Watermelon Cucumber Cooler
2 oz Gin

Watermelon-Cucumber Ice Cubes

Splash of Soda (or Tonic)

To make the Ice Cubes:

8 Slices Cucumber

6 Mint Leaves

1/4 Cup Fresh Lemon Juice

1 Tbsp Agave (or to taste)

2 Cups Fresh Watermelon Juice

Muddle cucumber, mint, lemon, and agave. Add watermelon juice and strain into ice cube tray. Freeze overnight. (Insert Jeopardy music here.)

Add 5 to 6 cubes into your glass then add Gin and Soda. It will melt into the perfect poolside cocktail. Enjoy!

Here I am poolside enjoying this picture perfect poolside treat…weeeee!

PLUG: This serves fabulously with summer reading: Sydney Shag & THE SIRENS: Heavy on the Vodka and a Little Bit Dirty ?

Poolside review found on Amazon: “Super fun pool read for my summer afternoons!! I binged through the whole thing in a weekend (cocktail in hand of course !) Loved following along with these ladies through all of their wild adventures in NYC ! Highly recommend u grab for beach vacay!”
