Published May 17, 2015 Updated Nov 03, 2024 Everywhere you turn, you see some fresh and plump watermelons beckon with a low price tag of $0.99 per lb, or $2.99 each! I am a sucker for watermelon, I can never resist them. And I would always pick the biggest one (which is bigger than my head), lug it home, and then realize that the watermelon is too big for my fridge and I couldn’t fit it in. That was exactly what happened this past weekend. With a bottle of tequila sitting on my kitchen counter top, plus some fresh mints in my backyard, I turned my watermelon into this amazing watermelon-tequila cocktail, thanks to the amazing recipe by Food & Wine. I opted out the blueberries from the recipe and added a bit of calamansi lime juice to the cocktail. It was amazing and in no time, Mr. Rasa Malaysia and I finished the whole jug of the cocktail, at 11 am in the morning! With Memorial Day weekend just days away, this watermelon-tequila cocktail is the perfect drink for your party, and definitely all through summer. You can easily make it into a mocktail by opting out tequila in the recipe. It’s a perfect cocktail for any parties and a summer drink to quench your thirst and beat the heat. This summer I plan to share many new cocktails and drinks recipes with you, some Asian-inspired, for example: ginger-lemongrass iced tea with boba (tapioca pearls), sake sangria, lychee martini and so much more. I am excited just thinking of these amazing libations. Please stay tuned and cheers! I hope you enjoy this post as much as I do.
