Hey Foodie (and cocktail loving) Mates, it’s formally Summer time!!! Welcome to our sixth version of a model new sequence right here at Tallahassee Foodies – Boozy Tuesdays.
Because the title suggests, each Tuesday this Summer time, we’ll be serving up a brand new summer time cocktail recipe to accompany these recent and attractive dishes you’ll be making at house all season!
To amp up this sequence and reap the benefits of what Tallahassee has to supply, I’ve enlisted the assistance of our favourite professional native bartenders that know EXACTLY find out how to whip up a customized cocktail.
After I pitched this summer time beverage thought to a couple native institutions, Charlie Park jumped in and provided up the primary eight rounds of our “enjoyable within the solar” beverage sequence!
What do I learn about this “new child on the block” meals and bev rooftop institution? They’re already well-known for his or her expertly crafted cocktails, dropped at you by their very personal common supervisor Derek Captain and bar supervisor Dalton Bedard.
I feel I’m most enthusiastic about this Boozy Tuesday recipe to date. I’m actually into fruity drinks these days, and I particularly love myself a fruity cocktail with basil. I’ve by no means tried the watermelon basil combo earlier than, so I’m keen! This cocktail screams summer time, your complete level of our summer time cocktail sequence!

This Watermelon Basil cocktail is an ode to all issues summer time. Crisp, refreshing, and vivid, this watermelon-infused St. Germain and basil mixture is ideal for sipping poolside.
Utilizing Ology Vodka, Watermelon Elderflower liqueur, recent citrus, Agave nectar, and bubbles, this effervescent delicacy is strained on prime of frozen watermelon balls rather than ice making this a kind of drinks we really feel matches completely for summer time in July.
Watermelon Basil Cocktail
This Watermelon Basil cocktail is an ode to all issues summer time. Crisp, refreshing, and vivid, this watermelon-infused St. Germain and basil mixture is ideal for sipping poolside.
- 1.5 oz Ology Vodka
- .75 oz Watermelon-infused St Germain
- 1 oz recent lemon juice
- .5 ouncesAgave Nectar
- 3 basil leaves
- High with Topo Chico
-
To make the watermelon infused St Germain, use 1/4th of an honest sized watermelon with out the husk and place into containers with 750ml of elderflower liqueur. Let it sit for 12-24 hours and pressure out the solids. As an added bonus, attempt consuming the watermelon from the infusion afterwards — scrumptious!
-
Begin with three recent basil leaves within the backside of a shaking tin. I desire to take the stems off as to ensure no bitterness is imparted into the drink. No must muddle, the ice will do this for us! Subsequent, add all elements into the shaking tin, minus the topo chico. Give a hearty shake and pressure right into a collins glass stuffed with frozen watermelon balls. High with Topo Chico and garnish with a recent bouquet of basil.
