  • 0.5 oz Melon liqueur

  • 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.

  • Serve immediately and enjoy the Electric Watermelon!
