a few mint leaves, some grated lime zest 7, and stir 8. Fill the glass with ice 9

and pour the prosecco 10, the blended watermelon pulp 11, and the lime juice 12.

Add the soda as well 13 and mix everything together. Complete with a few mint leaves 14 and watermelon skewers (we explain how in the tip at the bottom of the page). Here is the first watermelon cocktail ready, continue like this with all the others 15!

Storage

It is recommended to consume the watermelon cocktail immediately once ready.

Advice

Instead of prosecco, try variations based on your tastes like sparkling wine or even a bit of white rum or vermouth! If you don't have soda, sparkling water is just fine.

How to make watermelon skewers? Very simple, use a melon baller to get watermelon spheres and skewer them with a toothpick.
