Servings: 1
- 1.5 oz vodka
- 3-4 chunks of fresh watermelon
- 0.5 oz Melon liqueur
- 0.5 oz Lime juice
- 0.5 oz Watermelon schnapps
- Splash of Sprite
Add the watermelon chunks to a shaker tin and lightly muddle them. Add the vodka, lime juice, and watermelon schnapps on top.
Fill the shaker with ice and shake for 8–10 seconds to chill.
Strain into a chilled pint glass over fresh ice.
Top with Sprite and give it a gentle stir.
Slowly pour the melon liqueur over the back of a bar spoon so it neatly sinks to the bottom and creates the green watermelon layer.
Cut a small watermelon triangle and place it on the rim as a garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy the Electric Watermelon!
