Ingredients
- 4 ounces watermelon juice
- 3 ounces vodka
- 5 ounces ginger beer
- splash lime juice freshly squeezed
Instructions
- Fill a copper mug about ¾ full of ice. If using crushed ice, fill less.
- Pour in watermelon juice and vodka, stir lightly.

Notes
-
- Choose a high-quality ginger beer for a spicy and strong ginger flavor that balances the sweetness of the watermelon juice.
- For the crispest, most refreshing drink, chill your vodka, watermelon juice, and ginger beer in advance.
- Don’t over-mix—just a light swirl to combine watermelon juice and vodka before topping with ginger beer.
- Use a fine mesh strainer to remove pulp from your watermelon juice for an extra smooth finish.
- Use a copper mug or copper cup for that chilled, iconic look and feel. If you do not have one, chill all your ingredients instead!
- Crush up your ice into smaller chunks to chill quickly and gives a slushy, refreshing texture.
