Summer Sips: Watermelon Cocktail

Watermelon Cocktail

Would it really be summer without a deliciously refreshing watermelon cocktail?

Summer Sips: Watermelon Cocktail

Summer is the season for watermelon and cold cocktails, which is why we combined the two to make this refreshing and delicious beverage.  


Not only does our Bourbon Barrel-Aged Maple Syrup add the perfect touch of sweetness but it makes it the perfect complimentary drink to our Spicy Potato Salad.

Watermelon is the snack of the summer, and always tastes better when shared.
