A delicious twist on the popular summer cocktail. This version includes watermelon puree which gives it a light, slightly sweet flavor.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Make sure to use flavorful watermelon. I made this twice since the first time the watermelon just wasn't all that tasty. The second watermelon was much better and made for a wonderful drink. Great for summertime pool parties or sitting on the patio enjoying a sunset.
