Notes
If you'd rather use regular vodka, muddle fresh watermelon in the wine glass then add the vodka. This will leave some fruit chunks in the glass.If you prefer, you can muddle the watermelon in a different glass then strain saving only the watermelon juice for the cocktail. Which you would then mix with regular vodka.Use store-bought watermelon juice instead of making your own.Or blend fresh watermelon in a blender and press through a fine-mesh sieve to ensure you get out just the juice.Make this spicy by muddling fresh jalapeno or serrano pepper in the glass before you add the ice.If you would like it a little bit sweeter you can add simple syrup. Or for another boost of watermelon flavor make a watermelon simple syrup.Since you'll have a bottle of champagne open, this is a great watermelon champagne cocktail to make for a crowd. You will probably be able to get about 4 drinks from one bottle.Don't want to buy a whole bottle, grab some individual champagne bottles at the grocery store.
