Ingredients

Instructions

Lightly muddle the watermelon and then add the Reposado Tequila, lime juice and honey syrup. Shake all the ingredients over ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.

The combination of citrus juice and honey syrup also creates what is called a honeysuckle cocktail which can be made with several different spirits. I've recently had tequila on my mind so I made a tequila honeysuckle and bumped it up a notch by adding a couple of chunks of watermelon. I found that the watermelon added another layer of flavor and paired well with the honey syrup and the richness of the Reposado Tequila. This cocktail was really amazing and I encourage anyone who is trying to build up their drink repertoire to add this one to their list! Enjoy – Navarro Carr, Trios, Atlanta
