Watermelon Martinis Recipes

Steps:

• Place watermelon in a cocktail shaker and crush with a muddler; add ice cubes and vodka. Cover shaker and shake well. Strain cocktail into a martini glass.

Steps:

• Puree diced watermelon in a food processor. Strain through a fine mesh sieve. Fill martini shaker with ice. Add all ingredients and shake vigorously. Strain into chilled martini glass and garnish with pickled watermelon rind.

Steps:

• Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a small saucepan and cook until the sugar has completely dissolved. Let cool.
• In a food processor, puree the watermelon flesh. Add a little of the sugar syrup to sweeten, to taste. Pour the pureed watermelon into 2 empty ice cube trays and freeze for at least 4 hours.
• In a blender combine the frozen watermelon cubes, more simple syrup, to taste, lemon juice and vodka, melon liqueur and blend until smooth. Pour into 8 frozen martini glasses and garnish with a lemon twist.

Steps:

• Combine some salt and sugar in a small bowl, and pour onto a small, shallow plate. Moisten the rims of 2 glasses with a piece of watermelon, and dip the moistened glass rims into the salt and sugar mixture; set aside.
• Pour the watermelon juice, vodka, watermelon schnapps, simple syrup, and lime juice into a cocktail shaker over ice. Cover, and shake until the outside of the shaker has frosted. Strain into the prepared glasses.

Steps:

• Pour vodka and schnapps into a shaker 1/2 full of cracked ice and shake til your hands get cold. Let rest for a full minute.
• Moisten two martini glasses with a piece of watermelon and dip in sugar to coat rim. Toss the watermelon into the glass.
• Strain cocktail into each glass and serve.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a shaker and shake until very well chilled, about 30 seconds.
• Strain into a chilled martini glass.
• Hint: A properly shaken Martini will have a very thin layer of ice crystals floating on top after it is strained into the glass. Most people don't shake long enough and with enough vigor.

Steps:

• On saucer or small plate, mix sugar and salt. Rub rim of chilled martini glass with 1 of the watermelon cubes to moisten; dip rim of glass in sugar mixture.
• In cocktail shaker with ice, shake vodka, watermelon juice, simple syrup and lime juice until blended. Pour into glass, straining out ice. Thread remaining 2 to 3 watermelon cubes on skewer or cocktail pick; add to glass.
