- 750ml of boiling water
- 3 earl grey tea bags
- 2-3 tsp of rosewater essence (adjust accordingly to your preferred strength)
- Sliced watermelon
- 500ml of mineral water
- Ice cubes and mint to serve (optional)
Use a blender to blend the watermelon until smooth. Alternatively, if you aren’t a fan of pulp, use a juicer for a smoother consistency.
Combine the watermelon blend with the earl grey tea.
Add the rosewater essence and mineral water, stir to combine. Tip: if you’re making it the night before, leave out the mineral water until it’s time to serve.
To serve add the ice cubes and fresh mint. Time to say cheers!
For an adults only treat, add 30ml of Watermelon Vodka or Pink Gin to your glass when serving.
