I’m a makers Mark ambassador and I received this recipe for Makers Mark Watermelon Mint Julep in my e-mail today and thought I would share it.
2 oz. watermelon puree
1 oz. Maker’s Mark Bourbon
1 oz. citrus simple syrup
(Combine 1 cup mint leaves, 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup of lemon juice.
Boil until sugar is dissolved.)
1/2 oz. peach schnapps
Mint sprig for garnish
In a cocktail shaker, combine watermelon puree, Maker’s Mark, simple syrup and peach schnapps.
Shake well and pour over crushed ice. Garnish with mint sprig.
