Party Panache, Watermelon on the Rocks
Sigh….watermelon…
and “thank you” to the genius that created the seedless watermelon…
Perfect for popping in a cocktail!
Barcardi makes a Grand Melon Rum, for fabulous summer sipping
It’s so good, all you need is some ice, and a piece of watermelon or two
and perhaps a wedge of lime
These glasses are called “Cool Cocktails” by Libbey. The round bowl style glass holds a triangular glass perfectly on a bed of ice or “rocks”
You can also make a slushie
To enjoy poolside
Be careful, it tastes just like watermelon!
One more reason to celebrate Summer!
