I’m mentally ready for Fall, but it’s still hot here, so there are more Summer drinks to share. This one I batched for my Fantasy Football draft (I’m such a great Commissioner😎), and it was very well-received. It ended up tasting like a slightly spicy watermelon Jolly Rancher, if the candy tasted a bit more like the actual fruit. I clarified it for batching purposes, but the process really rounded the drink out nicely. It also took away most of the pink color, so I added some Peychaud’s bitters...

I love trying new ingredients, learning new techniques, and of course, creating new cocktails-- especially ones influenced by food in some way. I also love the photography/videography side of things. I’m incredibly passionate about my craft but try not to take myself too seriously. Cheers!...

See background for syrup information. Combine ingredients and slowly add to 1oz whole milk. Gently stir, cover, refrigerate for a few hours (ideally overnight). Strain through coffee filter, bottle, refrigerate. Serve over ice with optional Peychaud’s float.
Editor's Note
Milk clarification transforms this watermelon sour into a silky, crystal-clear sipper. The overproof rum and habanero bitters provide a necessary backbone to the fruit-forward profile.
