Watermelon and whiskey come together in this delicious and refreshing treat. Perfect for beating the summer heat!
Ingredients
1 cup Sugar
½ cup Water
8 cups Cubed Watermelon (Seedless works best)
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
3 tbsp Kelley American Single Malt Whiskey
Variation
Try swapping out the Kelley American Single Malt Whiskey for our Dispatch Cinnamon Rye Whiskey for a fuller mouth feel
Procedure
In a small saucepan, combine your sugar and water on medium heat. Cook until dissolved and let cool. This will become a simple syrup but can also be replaced with 3 tbsp agave if you’d prefer.
Blend your watermelon chunks on a low setting for a few moments or until smooth. Take a mesh strainer and press your watermelon puree to get out all the juice.
Once you have all the juice, combine it with your simple syrup mixture (or agave), lemon juice and Kelley American Single Malt Whiskey and stir.
Let freeze for a minimum of 2 hours. This will vary based on your container! We let ours freeze for a day before serving and enjoying.
