Everyone loves a cocktail that is crisp, refreshing, and oh-so-delicious. Watermelon Mint Vodka Splash is like that friend you’re always happy to see. It brings good vibes to an occasion!

The best part of sipping this cocktail? It delivers a light fruity flavor without that overpowering syrupy after-taste from cocktail recipes made with high-sugar mixes. Smirnoff’s Zero Sugar Watermelon & Mint Vodka is infused with natural flavors and is gluten-free. It’s easy drinking, so let this be your warning.

I grow fresh mint in my raised garden bed during spring and summer, so I always have it on hand for recipes like this one. Why not save money on buying herbs by growing them yourself? Consider ordering mint plant seeds online to add to your herb garden or a container pot for a sunny spot on your deck. Mint is a hardy plant that will continue to produce new leaves as long as you pinch it back now and then.

Watermelon Mint Vodka Splash is your go-to drink when you want to mix a cocktail for an afternoon by the pool or have your toes in the sand by the lake. Oh, and consider the possibilities of blending the watermelon and ice together and then adding the rest of the ingredients. Irresistible!

If you’re ready to mix this cocktail recipe, you may also appreciate my recipe for its cousin cocktail, Cucumber Lime Vodka Splash. It’s the MOST POPULAR recipe on my blog, hands down. Grab a couple of glasses and make each one!

Refreshing. Bubbly. Tasty! This cocktail is perfect for those days when you want a boozy drink and you’re craving something light and refreshing. Cucumber Lime Vodka Splash, made with only three ingredients, is a cocktail you (and your friends!) will love. Grab a glass, and let’s get started!

To make this cocktail a delightful one, you must start with its base: Smirnoff Cucumber Zero Sugar Infusions Cucumber & Lime Vodka. I discovered this flavored vodka when strolling the aisles of my neighborhood liquor store in search of something flavorful but less heavy in sugar than rum.

I added LaCroix Lime Sparkling Water, fresh cucumber, and garnished with fresh lime and mint leaves.

To make my Cucumber Lime Vodka Splash, follow the simple steps in the recipe card below. I promise you’ll appreciate this drink’s flavor profile so much you’ll want to share it with friends at your next get-together. Cheers!
