Ingredients for 2 glasses: White Rum 2.7 oz (80 ml); Watermelon ¼ cup (60 ml) - juice; Lime juice ½; Sugar syrup 4 tsp (20 ml); Mint to taste

For 4 skewers: Cantaloupe 7.1 oz (200 g); Camembert cheese 3.5 oz (100 g) - buffalo; Chili oil to taste

Preparation

How to prepare Watermelon Daiquiri with Melon Skewers

To prepare the watermelon daiquiri with melon skewers, start by placing the two glasses in the freezer that will be used to serve the drink. Move on to the skewers. After peeling the melon 1, cut it into two slices, preferably horizontally, and use a melon baller to get 4 balls from each slice: 8 spheres in total 2. Then cut the camembert into cubes the same size as the melon balls: get 4 pieces of about 0.88 oz each 3.

Brush the cheese cubes with chili oil 4 and skewer first a melon ball 5, then the cheese, and another melon ball 6.

Do the same with the others, obtaining 4 skewers 7. Refrigerate them for a moment and focus on the daiquiri. After slicing the watermelon, cut it into coarse pieces 8 and place them in a blender to puree them 9.

Once you have a sauce, strain it to collect seeds and any pulp pieces 10, and pour it into a shaker along with the rum 11, lime juice 12,

and the syrup 13. Add some ice cubes 14, close, and shake it all 15.

Place the strainer 16, pour into the glasses, and serve with the skewers 17. Your watermelon daiquiri with melon skewers is ready 18.

Storage

Once the watermelon daiquiri with melon skewers is ready, any form of storage is not recommended.

Tip

Instead of lime, you can use classic lemon juice to flavor your watermelon daiquiri with melon skewers. If you don't like or can't find camembert, opt for a timeless classic: mozzarella balls!
