3 fresh mint leaves, 1/2 tablespoon granulated sugar, Juice of one lime
Muddle to release the fresh watermelon juice and mint flavor and continue until the sugar dissolves. (You can also use superfine sugar – it will dissolve more easily.)
Add the rum , then a handful of ice and shake well to combine and chill the drink.
1 1/2 ounces white rum, Ice
Pour into tall glasses and top with a splash of club soda.
1 splash club soda
Garnish with a fresh watermelon slice, a lime wedge, and fresh mint sprigs.
Lime and small watermelon slices for garnish

Seedless watermelon works best for this recipe. It will save you the hassle of removing the seeds later.
If you don’t have a cocktail muddler, you can use the back of a wooden spoon.
