Muddling Watermelon like a Mixologist

When you muddle watermelon, you want to take your time and press the muddler down gently while turning the mixing cup with the opposite hand. Watermelon is one of the simplest fruits to muddle, due to its overall-smooth consistency. With the warm, summer weather in full effect there is nothing better than enjoying some Blue Ice Vodka and watermelon mixes:

Muddling Instructions:

1. Press the fruit watermelon to the bottom of the cocktail glass in way that the essential flavors exposed more.

2. For watermelon, you can use a blunt muddler.

3. Place watermelon chunks into bottom of your cocktail glass or shaker. Use a firm pressing mechanism and twisting motion to juice the fruit and extrapolate the oils. Then proceed to add the rest of the ingredients and shake or serve as instructed.
