Enjoy the Recipe by Nico and Bianca!
I had a bottle of Prosecco sitting in my fridge for some time now. I guess I was waiting for the summer. With so many fruits around now, it was a good reason to open the bottle for a refreshment mix.
Serving with Style
Ingredients
– watermelon – about half of a medium size one
– fresh mint leaves
– fresh or frozen berries (I used frozen ones, instead of ice)
– 1 lime
– Prosecco (chilled)
Method
Get all the seeds out from watermelon, then place the pulp into a blender. Give it a good mix. Strain through a fine sieve, so the juice it’s separated from the pulp.
I ended up with a bit more then half a liter of juice.
In a glass goblet put some fresh mint leaves, 1 lime (very thin sliced) and some berries.
