Shannon's Seoul Summer Sip; with watermelon and rum
Yes, that's right - Shannon's Seoul Summer Sip, say that 5 times fast. Or better yet, make enough to share with 5 friends. Simple and refreshing, this cocktail screams summer. It will also help you rest, relax and enjoy a hot summer day.
Shannon Buckley-Shaklee; fantastic friend and master mixologist planted the seed for this recipe, shortly after I visited her in Seoul, South Korea in May.
"It is full-on watermelon season here. Have you ever had watermelon juice? If not, have some quickly. It is amazing. We made watermelon cocktails tonight and they were very yummy."
Pour all of the ingredients in a pitcher, blender or food processor. Pulse for about 3 minutes until the watermelon has turned to juice. Add crushed ice or serve straight up with a sprig of mint to garnish.
