Refreshing, sweet, and with a hint of sophistication — the Watermelon Martini is a juicy summer cocktail that blends the bright flavors of fresh watermelon with vodka and lime. It’s light, crisp, and dangerously easy to sip.

Origin Watermelon Martini

A playful twist on the classic vodka martini, this fruity version became popular in upscale bars and beach lounges during the early 2000s cocktail renaissance. Today, it’s a go-to summer favorite.

What I Love About This Recipe

It’s fresh and hydrating, with just the right balance of sweetness and citrus. Plus, it’s stunning in a glass — pale pink with a vibrant, cooling vibe that makes it perfect for summer parties or solo wind-downs.
