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.
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.

The cloche was originally invented to protect growing watermelons in the field from cold temperatures. keep ours inside as an oversized modern pastry lid.
